Krzywiń () is a town in west-central Poland in the Kościan County, Greater Poland Voivodeship, located at the Obra canal.

==History== thumb|left|Local parish church from around 1450 Krzywiń was first referred to in scripts as Crivin in 1181. But it was not until 1237 that the area's reputation grew as a prominent marketplace. It was then that it was referred to as a town. Incorporation of the town followed in 1257. It was a private church town, administratively located in the Kościan County in the Poznań Voivodeship in the Greater Poland Province of the Kingdom of Poland.
