John II of Liechtenstein was a 15th-century nobleman and member of the council of Jobst of Moravia.
John II helped King Wenceslaus IV escape to Vienna from his second imprisonment on 11 November 1403. Wenceslas was able to initially escape his prison wearing a disguise. He crossed the Danube, where John II was waiting for him with a guard of fifty horsemen who escorted him to Mikulov Castle.[1]
In 1405, Margrave Jobst paid a ransom for John II after he was captured in his service.[2]
