Sława (; ) is a town in Wschowa County, Lubusz Voivodeship, in western Poland. As of the 2019 census, Sława had a population of 4,321. It is situated on the eastern shore of Lake Sławskie.

==History== The area was part of Poland after the creation of the state in the 10th century. Later on, as a result of the fragmentation of Poland into smaller provincial duchies, Sława initially formed part of Greater Poland before it passed to Silesia, and then to the Duchy of Głogów, where it remained ruled by the Piast dynasty until 1468. The town was mentioned in a document from 1312.
