Tymbark is a village in southern Poland, some 80 km south-east of Cracow, population 2,400 (2004 data).

Tymbark was granted city rights in 1357 by King Casimir III of Poland. The town's original name was "Jodłowa Góra", but as the majority of first burghers came from German lands, the name was soon Germanised as "Tannenberg", which gave origin to the current one, used from about the 16th century. Tymbark lost the city status in 1934; now it is the administrative centre of Gmina Tymbark.

In 1936 the Podhalańska Fruit and Vegetable Cooperative was established in Tymbark, which developed into a successful business. The cooperative was nationalised in 1950, reprivatised in 1995 and now operates as "Tymbark S.A.", producing fruit preserves, drinks and juices.
