Tymbark is a village in southern Poland, some south-east of Kraków, population 2,400 (2004 data).

Tymbark was granted city rights in 1357 by King Casimir III of Poland. The town's original name was Jodłowa Góra (literally: firry mountain), but as the majority of first burghers came from German lands, the name was soon Germanised as Tannenberg, which gave origin to the current one, used from about the 16th century. Tymbark lost the city status in 1934; now it is the administrative centre of Gmina Tymbark.
