Komstad is a town in the parish earlier called Norra Ljunga Parish, Småland, Sweden suited about 4 km west of Sävsjö town.

It is an old town, mentioned in historical records as early as 1370.

From this town came Jonas Bronk who gave name to The Bronx, New York, USA.

Komstad was previously the location for the parish's Thing and was the main town in Västra Härad (west side part of Njudung). But when the railroad was constructed in the 1860s, nearby Sävsjö became the new main town in the region.
