Chociwel [xɔˈt͡ɕivɛl] (Kashubian: Frinwôłd; German: Freienwalde in Pommern) is a town in northwestern Poland, in West Pomeranian Voivodeship, in Stargard County.

In the 15th century the town's main landmark was built – the Gothic Our Lady of Sorrows church.

In 1945 it was awarded to Poland, along with most of Western Pomerania, at the insistence of Josef Stalin, and its entire population was expelled.
