Llangammarch Wells ( _cy. Llangamarch) is a village in the parish of Llangammarch in Powys, Wales, lying on the River Irfon. Population 475, over a third Welsh-speaking.

It is the smallest of the four spa towns of mid-Wales. The spa was focused on a barium well, which is now closed, but the village is still popular with anglers. The old village is centred around the parish church of St Cammarch.
