Kargowa [karˈɡɔva] (German: Unruhstadt) is a town in Zielona Góra County, Lubusz Voivodeship, in western Poland, with 3,769 inhabitants (2019).

Though located in the Lubusz Voivodeship, Kargowa is part of the Greater Poland historic region.

After Poland regained independence, Kargowa was captured by Polish insurgents in 1919; however, the Treaty of Versailles granted the town to Germany.

During the final stages of World War II in 1945, a German-perpetrated death march of Jewish women from a just dissolved subcamp of the Gross-Rosen concentration camp in Sława passed through the town.

[6] The town finally returned to Poland after the defeat of Nazi Germany in World War II in 1945.
