Kunjah (Punjabi and Urdu: کنجاہ) is a city in Gujrat District of Punjab, Pakistan.

Various accounts date the founding of Kunjah anywhere from the 4th century BCE during the time of Alexander the Great to the 8th century CE. Kunjah is named after a raja named Kunjpal who is also often credited to be the founder of the town. Islam was brought to the region by the Umayyad Caliphate early in the 8th century and soon replaced Buddhism as the dominant religion. Kunjah grew in prominence in the 9th and 10th centuries.

Starting during the Muslim period, Kunjah was considered a strategically important town. Ibrahim Bin Masood used Kunjah as his main base for his attack on neighboring districts. In the Mughal period, King Aurangzeb Alamgir also visited Kunjah, and during his stay in Kunjah he built a mosque that is now named after him.

Kunjah prospered during the time of the Sikh Empire. Maharaja Ranjit Singh granted Kunjah and several villages as jagir to one of his most trusted officers, Diwan Moti Ram. The place was Moti Ram's ancestral hometown and worth over three lakh rupees annually. His family built a number of gardens and a baradari that still stands. Also to be found are two royal palaces and a royal bathing pool connected by tunnels.

According to 1998 Population and Housing Census, population was estimated to be 30,000 but now it is estimated to be 35,000, with about 4500 households. The main religion is Sunni Islam, with a small Shi'a and Ahmadiyya minority and a few Christians. There are about 50 mosques, one imam bargah and one church and one temple.

Kunjah lies in the NA-69 (Gujrat-II) (previously NA 105) of Punjab for the national assembly elections and PP-30 (Gujrat-III) (previously PP 110) for the provincial assembly of Punjab.
