Zagórów is a town in Słupca County, Greater Poland Voivodeship, in central Poland, with 2,985 inhabitants (2010).

==History== The town's name is of Old Polish origin and comes from the word zagór. The oldest known mention of the settlement comes from a document from 1240. Zagórów received town rights from King Władysław II Jagiełło in 1407, however, these rights were implemented only in 1445. It was a private church town, administratively located in the Konin County in the Kalisz Voivodeship in the Greater Poland Province of the Kingdom of Poland. The town suffered as a result of the 17th-century Polish–Swedish wars.
