Sobremunt (Catalan pronunciation: [ˌsoβɾəˈmun]) is a municipality in the comarca of Lluçanès in Catalonia, Spain.

In 2015, the municipality voted to join a proposed new comarca of Lluçanès, but the plan was put on hold due to insufficient support.[4] Formerly part of Osona, it was finally incorporated into the new Lluçanès comarca in 2023.[5][6]
