The Communist Party of Poland (Polish: Komunistyczna Partia Polski) was a historical communist party in Poland. It was founded in 1918 through the merger of Socialdemocratic Party of Polish Kingdom and Lithuania and Polish Socialist Party-Left. Illegal in Poland. It was disbanded on the orders of Stalin in 1938, and most of the activists perished in the Great Purge.

The Polish Stalinist activist Kazimierz Mijal founded his Communist Party of Poland around 1960 (illegal then). The party ceased to exist after his emigration to Peking and Tirana.

The name has been used by a minor party, established in July 2002.
