The
Eastern Wei (; 東魏 Dōng Wèi) followed the disintegration of the
Northern Wei, and ruled northern China from 534 to 550. As with Northern Wei, the ruling family of Eastern Wei were members of the Tuoba clan of the Xianbei.
Gao Huan was the potentate of the eastern half of what was Northern Wei territory. In 534 , following the disintegration of the Northern Wei dynasty, he installed Yuan Shanjian as ruler of Eastern Wei. Yuan Shanjian was a descendant of the Northern Wei. Yuan Shanjian was a puppet ruler, as the real power lay in the hands of Gao Huan. Several military campaigns were launched against the neighboring Western Wei in an attempt to reunify the territory once held by the Northern Wei, however these campaigns were not successful. In 547 Gao Huan died. His sons Gao Cheng and Gao Yang were able to pursue his policy of controlling the emperor, but in 550 Gao Yang deposed Yuan Shanjian and founded his own dynasty, the Northern Qi.

歷史
北魏孝武帝為對抗權臣高歡逃奔關中後，高歡另立元善見為帝，東魏開始。
東魏自始，便是霸府政治權臣高歡架空皇帝掌控整個政局。高歡於公元547年病死，其權勢由長子高澄所繼承。隨即發生大將侯景叛投西魏的事件，但被高澄所平定。高澄權傾人主，曾命手下崔季舒打孝靜帝三拳。後來孝靜帝君臣圖謀高澄，事洩，高澄指責身為皇帝的孝靜帝要造反，雖然當時與孝靜帝和解，但隨即幽禁孝靜帝並誅殺參與圖謀的大臣。公元550年，當二十七歲的孝靜帝以為高澄遇刺身亡、自己可以親政時，隨即被高澄之弟高洋所廢，東魏亡。東魏只有孝靜帝元善見一個皇帝，用四個年號，共十六年。東魏由北齊取代。
東魏時期的藝術創作仍以佛教為主要啟發。位於泰山的神通寺，是中國現存最古老的石造塔寺，可能建於東魏一代。此時期的佛雕較北魏時期渾厚。
