Stropkov (Yiddish: סטראפקאוו, Hebrew: סטרופקוב, Hungarian: Sztropkó) is a town in Stropkov District, Prešov Region, Slovakia.
Stropkov is an economical, social and cultural centre of north Zemplín. It was established on left bank of river Ondava in beautiful scenery of central part in Ondava uplands. For its origins as an ancient Slovak settlement we have to look back (and many archaeologists and historians agree in this case) before the 13th century. The character of the main square is a proof that Stropkov used to belong to the royal lands and there are also some similarities with the development of another town, called Bardejov.
