Obrenovac (Обреновац) is a town and municipality located in Serbia at 44.66° North, 20.21° East. Its name stems from last name "Obrenović" which in turn stems from name "Obren" in Serbian language. In 2003 the municipality has total population of 75,949. Obrenovac is one of Belgrade's 17 municipalities.
Obrenovac is situated 30km south of Belgrade near a bend of the river Sava. There is a coal-fired power station on the outskirts; its chimney is widely visible as the surrounding area is generally flat.
There is a regular food market in the centre of the town. The market for other goods is (as of August 2006) to the south of the town on the Valjevo road.
