Eusebia Palomino Yenes (15 December 1899 – 10 February 1935) was a Spanish Roman Catholic professed religious and a professed member of the Salesian Sisters of Don Bosco. Palomino worked as a domestic during her adolescence, having withdrawn from her education to support her parents. She later worked with the Salesian Sisters before beginning the process of becoming a member of that order in the 1920s. She continued many of the same duties afterward and became known for her devotion to the five wounds of Jesus Christ and to the Via Crucis.
Palomino's beatification cause commenced on 15 December 1981, and she was titled as a Servant of God. The ratification of a decree recognizing her life of heroic virtue allowed Pope John Paul II to name her Venerable on 17 December 1996. That same pope confirmed a miracle attributed to her intercession and beatified Palomino on 25 April 2004 in Saint Peter's Square.
