Kiviõli (/ˌkɪviˈoʊli/ KIV-ee-OHL-ee; Estonian: [ˈkiviɤlʲi]) is an industrial town in Ida-Viru County, Estonia, established in 1922.

In 1922, the joint-stock company Eesti Kiviõli (lit.

'Estonian stone oil') established an oil shale quarry in land belonging to the village of Salaküla, and mining commenced in 1930.

A worker's settlement belonging to the village of Varinurme was built in the 1930s and named Kiviõli after the joint-stock company.
