Kung Karls jakt (English: King Charles' Hunt; Finnish: Kaarle-kuninkaan metsästys) is an opera with music by Fredrik Pacius and a libretto by Zacharias Topelius. It was the first opera to be composed in Finland. Kung Karls jakt was first performed in Helsinki on 24 March 1852. Although the text is in Swedish (Swedish and Finnish are both official languages in Finland) it concerns an event from Finnish history when Finland was a province of Sweden in the 17th century. The work takes the form of a Singspiel with spoken dialogue between the musical numbers (the king himself does not sing). The music is heavily influenced by contemporary German and Italian opera, with a few Finnish elements such as the use of a kantele in one scene.

- Kung Karls jakt (finska: Kaarle-kuninkaan metsästys) är en opera i tre akter med musik av Fredrik Pacius och libretto (på svenska) av Zacharias Topelius. Operan uruppfördes 1852.. Berättelsen är typisk Topelius: en ung kvinna ur folket räddar kungen och får sin belöning. Den till det yttre naiva berättelsen gömmer Topelius nationalistiska idéer. (sv)
