Sremski Karlovci (German Karlowitz or Carlowitz; Hungarian Karloca) is a town in the autonomous province Vojvodina, Serbia, situated on the bank of the river Danube, between Belgrade and Novi Sad.

Between November 16, 1698, and January 26, 1699, the town of Sremski Karlovci was the site of a congress that ended the hostilities between the Ottoman Empire and the Holy League, a coalition of various European powers including Austria, Poland, Venice and Russia; the congress produced the Treaty of Carlowitz.
