Kopřivnice (; ) is a town in Nový Jičín District in the Moravian-Silesian Region of the Czech Republic. It has about 21,000 inhabitants. The town is located in a valley in the Moravian-Silesian Foothills.
Kopřivnice is known as a centre of industry. Until the industrialisation in the 19th century, Kopřivnice was just a village. Präsident, the first series-produced automobile in Austria-Hungary, was designed and manufactured in Kopřivnice, and the automotive industry is still important to the town today. Tatra Trucks, one of the oldest motor vehicle manufacturers in the world, is based here.
