Družmirje (, ) is a settlement in the Municipality of Šoštanj in northern Slovenia. It lies just east of Šoštanj with much of its territory flooded after the collapse of abandoned shafts in the Šoštanj lignite mine. The area is part of the traditional region of Styria. The municipality is now included in the Savinja Statistical Region.

==Name== Družmirje was attested in historical sources as Tresimir in 1309 (and as Stresimir in 1311, Smerstorf in 1318, and Smersdorf in 1424). The Slovenian name Družmirje is probably a clipped form of *Družimir′e selo 'Družimirъ's village', referring to an early inhabitant of the place.
