Sibley was a settlement in Cloud County, Kansas, United States, north of Concordia and the Republican River.
Sibley was founded in 1869, and named for Lake Sibley. It was once in the running for the county seat but lost in an 1870 run-off election against Concordia. The area is now abandoned as a town and the land is privately owned and used for farming. It is considered a ghost town.
