Air field Gubin (Polish: Lotnisko Gubin, German: Flugplatz Guben) was an airfield north of Gubin (Guben) in Poland.
The airfield was built in the 1930s on the east bank of the Neisse River by the Luftwaffe at was then German territory. The airfield was home to a Luftwaffe Flying School until at least 1943.

After World War II the city of Guben was split between Germany and Poland as a result of the Potzdam conference. As a result the airfield fell to the Polish side. With the border with Germany being ony a few hundred (in some places only a few dozen) meters away, its usefulness as an airfield was severely limited. 
Information on the airfields history is very hard to find, especially after World War II. It is presumed to have been closed after the fall of the Reich. 
The airfield is still very recognisable from aerial photography and even some of its platforms still exist.
