We find an expansion parallax for the slow nova RW UMi (Nova Ursae Minoris 1956). A narrow-band Halpha image shows that the diameter of the nova shell in 1995 was 2.94+0.37-0.49 arcsec. We derive a distance of 5250+590-1050 pc, and an absolute magnitude at maximum of Mv = -7.7+0.3-0.4 which are consistent with previous estimates for the nova. We also revised known relations between various parameters of nova systems.
