Stanisław Sówka (of Prawdzic coat of arms), was a fourteenth-century bishop of Płock in Poland who held office from 1367 to 1375 AD.[1]

According to older publications he came from Gulczewa near Płock and with his brother Mikołaj worked in the office of the king.[2] Mikołaj was appointed a bishop by pope Urban V a position he filled for 12 years. Following his death Stanislaw was appointed to replace his brother. Stanislaw was in turn succeeded by another brother, Dobiesław Sówka who was bishop from 5 July 1375 to the 12th of January 1381.
