Serjilla () is one of the best preserved of the Dead Cities in northwestern Syria, containing about 700 sites. It is located in the Jebel Riha, approximately 65 km north from Hama and 80 km southwest from Aleppo, very close to ruins of another "Dead City", Bara.
The settlement arose in a natural basin and prospered from cultivating of grapes and olives. The presence of a bath complex indicates the wealth of the community. Serjilla, a Byzantine settlement, was built in 473. Thomas Joseph Shanan considered Serjilla as "Pompeii of the East".
