Spojil is a village in Pardubice Region of the Czech Republic. It is located about 3 km east of city centre of Pardubice and has a population of 342 (2006). Spojil is quite young among Czech villages as it was founded in 1785 in place of two former fish ponds, named Spojil and Strejček. There is only one minor sight, the Assumption chapel, built in 1868.

The village was part of Pardubice city from 1961 until 1991.[1] Nowadays it is an enclave surrounded entirely by the city, situated between the neighbourhoods of Studánka and Staročernsko.
