Srebrenica is a town in the east of Bosnia and Herzegovina in the Republika Srpska entity. It is a small mountain town, its main industry being salt mining and a nearby spa. Before 1992, there was a metal factory in the town, and lead, zinc, and gold mines nearby. The town's name (Srebrenica) means "silver mine".

During the war in Bosnia in the 1990s, the town became a Bosniak enclave surrounded by the Bosnian Serbs. In July 1995 the town was occupied and its surroundings became the site of the Srebrenica Massacre of thousands of Bosniaks by Bosnian Serbs.

The town contains a memorial cemetery which was unveiled by former US President Bill Clinton in 2003.
