NGC 5334 is a face-on barred spiral galaxy in the constellation Virgo. Its velocity with respect to the cosmic microwave background is 1668 ± 20 km/s, which corresponds to a Hubble distance of 80.2 ± 5.7 Mly (24.60 ± 1.75 Mpc). However, five non-redshift measurements give a distance of 108.68 ± 7.45 Mly (33.320 ± 2.283 Mpc). It was discovered by German-British astronomer William Herschel on 15 April 1787. It was also observed by American astronomer Lewis Swift on 20 April 1897 and listed in the Index Catalogue as IC 4338.

NGC 5334 is a member of the Virgo III Groups, a series of galaxies and galaxy clusters strung out to the east of the Virgo Supercluster of galaxies.

Although no supernovae have been observed in NGC 5334 yet, a luminous blue variable, designated SN 2003gm (type LBV, mag. 17), was discovered on 6 July 2003.
