Tököl (Serbo-Croatian: 'Tukulja') is a town in Pest County, Hungary.

The majority of residents are Hungarians, with a minority of Bunjevci.

An airfield was built during World War II, which was to become a Soviet military base. During the Hungarian Uprising, Pál Maléter, as Defence Minister for the Imre Nagy government, went to negotiate with the Soviet military presence and was arrested during the negotiations.
