Lubsko [IPA-pl|'|l|u|p|s|k|o] ( _de. Sommerfeld) is a town in Żary County in the Lubusz Voivodeship in western Poland. It has a population of 15,370 as of February 1 2005.

The town was first documented in 1258 and received town privileges in 1283. Then known as "Sommerfeld", German for "summer field", it came into the possession of Brandenburg in 1482 and was part of the Neumark. In 1846 Sommerfeld was on the railway line connecting Berlin with Breslau (Wrocław).

Augusta Viktoria of Schleswig-Holstein was born in Dolzig Palace (Dłużek, part of modern Lubsko) in 1858. Gerhard Domagk attended school in Sommerfeld until he was 14; the scientist would later win the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1939.

At the Potsdam Conference in 1945 after the end of World War II, the town became part of Poland and officially received the Polish name "Lubsko".
