Soragna (Parmigiano: ) is a town and comune in the Province of Parma, northern Italy, with a population of about 4,800.

Soragna is first recorded in 712, in a document issued by the Lombard king Liutprand. From 1198, it was a possession of the Lupi family and an imperial fief elevated to a marquisate in 1347 and to a principate in 1709 with the right to mint coins.
