Audio|Kozubova.ogg|Kozubová (Polish: Audio-nohelp|Kozubowa.ogg|"Kozubowa") is a Unit m|982|0 mountain in the Moravian-Silesian Beskids mountain range, Frýdek-Místek District, Moravian-Silesian Region, Czech Republic.

Several touristic routes lead to Kozubová. One can reach the mountain from surrounding villages: Milíkov (Milików), Košařiska (Koszarzyska), Bocanovice (Boconowice) and Dolní Lomná (Łomna Dolna).

According to Jan Korzenny, regional historian from Dolní Lomná, the name of the mountain is derived from surname "Kozub". It is said to be a sheep shepherd who led his sheep on the slopes of this mountain.

In 1937 a Saint Anne chapel of Beskid sandstone was built there, and since that year a church fair occurs here every year at the end of July. Main initiator of the building was priest Rudolf Płoszek from Hnojník (Gnojnik). Prominent feature of the chapel is a 15 metres high tower, serving as a lookout tower during the church fair. Church masses occur only several times a year. At the end of the 1990s it was reconstructed.

There is a mountain hut on Kozubová. Original wooden hut was built in August 1929 on the initiative of Polskie Towarzystwo Turystyczne "Beskid Śląski" (Polish Touristic Society "Silesian Beskids") of the Polish minority in Czechoslovakia, it however burnt to the ground on 9 February 1973. [Jaworski 1999, 3.] In 1986 new, current hut was built on its place, its architectonic character is however completely different than the style of the original one.
