The Lewin Tunnel (German Galgenbergtunnel) is a railway tunnel on the Kłodzko Nowe–Kudowa-Zdrój railway in south-western Poland, between Kulin Kłodzki and Lewin Kłodzki in the Lower Silesian Voivodeship. It passes beneath Szubieniczna Hill in the Lewin Hills and has a length of 80 m (260 ft).
The tunnel was built as part of the final extension of the railway from Kłodzko to Kudowa-Zdrój, a mountain section that required two tunnels and the prominent viaduct at Lewin Kłodzki. It remains in railway use as part of line no. 309, managed by PKP Polskie Linie Kolejowe.
