Koupéla is a city in Burkina Faso, lying east of Ouagadougou (137 km or 85 mi) and west of Fada-Ngourma (82 km or 51 mi) in an area settled by the Mossi people.

It is known for its pottery and sculptures; these were made from natural clays found in the area.

In 1900 Koupéla became the site of the first Catholic mission in Burkina Faso.
