Zopowy is a village in the Głubczyce district, in the Głubczyce municipality. The town is located on the Głubczyce Plateau, at the foot of the south-eastern part of the Opawskie Mountains.
The name of the town derives from the word "czop" – the Old Polish name for a carpenter's joint.
The village is located in the Mokre – Lewice Region Protected Landscape Area, within the area of the Prudnik Forestry. In the 18th century, the knightly estates in Zopowy belonged to the Order of the Teutonic Knights. The properties remained in the possession of the Teutonic Knights until the second half of the 19th century and between 1861 and 1866 they were taken over by the Prussian state treasury. The estate – handed over to the management of tenants – remained the property of the German state until the end of World War II. In the village, there is a manor house from the second half of the 18th century. In 1945, the manor house was burned down by Soviet soldiers. After its reconstruction, it served as a multi-family residential building. Around the manor, farm buildings dating from the mid-19th century have been fragmentarily preserved. The monuments of the village also include the Church of St. Michael the Archangel, from the mid-20th century.
