The House of Aviz (in the current spelling Avis; Portuguese pronunciation: [ɐˈviʃ]) is a dynasty of the kings of Portugal. In 1385, the Interregnum of the 1383-1385 crisis ended with the proclamation by the Master of the Order of Aviz of John I, natural son of king Peter I and Dona Teresa Lourenço, as king. The descendants of king John I were still nominal Masters of Aviz, though they were often replaced by other officers of the monastic military order. With the death of John II, a new branch of the House was inaugurated when his cousin Manuel, Duke of Beja ascended to the throne of Portugal- hence, the House of Aviz-Beja.

The House of Aviz was a branch of the Portuguese House of Burgundy.
