The Trebinje Region is one of the seven regions of Republika Srpska in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Its administrative center is the town of Trebinje. It comprises most of eastern Herzegovina.
The town of Trebinje (Cyrillic: Требиње) is the southern-most municipality and town in Republika Srpska, Bosnia and Herzegovina. It is located in southeastern Herzegovina at 42°42′32″N, 18°19′18″E, some 10km from the Adriatic Sea (only 28km from the famous town of Dubrovnik)

The town lies on the Trebišnjica River which flows further through the Popovo polje area (South-West of the town) There are several mills along the river, as well as several bridges, including 2 in Trebinje itself, and a historic Ottoman Arslanagic bridge nearby (today, the Perovica Bridge).
There is an Orthodox church in Trebinje, Saborna Crkva, as well as a new monastery, Hercegovacka Gracanica, located above the town, on the historic hill known as Crkvina, while nearby is also Tvrdoš Monastery, dating back to the 15th century.
Trebinje is also home to the Catholic Cathedral of the Birth of Mary. The town largely escaped damage during the war, but Ottoman architecture was destroyed (Resulbegovic Historic House, Sultan's Mosque). The Osman-Pasha Mosque of Trebinje was rebuilt by the returned Bosnian Muslim (Bosniak) community in July 2005.
