Sompolno [sɔmˈpɔlnɔ] is a town in Konin County, Greater Poland Voivodeship, in central Poland,^[1] with 3,614 inhabitants (2016).

In the 10th century, the area became part of the emerging Polish state under its first historic ruler Mieszko I. In 1242, Duke Casimir I of Kuyavia from the Piast dynasty stayed in Sompolno, and issued a privilege for the Sulejów Abbey there.^[2] Sompolno was granted town rights in 1477. It was a royal town, administratively located in the Brześć Kujawski Voivodeship in the Greater Poland Province of the Kingdom of Poland. A route connecting Warsaw with Poznań and Dresden ran through the town in the 18th century and King Augustus III of Poland often traveled that route.^[3]

During the German occupation of Poland (World War II), Sompolno was renamed to Deutscheck between 1939–1943 and then later to Deutscheneck between 1943–1945^[4] in attempt to erase traces of Polish origin.

The local football club is GKS Sompolno. It competes in the lower leagues.
