Janjevo (Serbian Cyrillic: Јањево) or Janjevë (in Albanian) is a village or small town in the Lipjan municipality in eastern Kosovo.
The settlement has a long history, having been mentioned for the first time in 1303 as a Catholic parish. The town was prior to the Kosovo War (1998–99) inhabited by a majority of Croats, known by their demonym as Janjevci, who since have left massively for Croatia.
