Limbuš (pronounced [ˈliːmbuʃ], German: Lembach[3]) is a settlement on the right bank of the Drava River west of Maribor in northeastern Slovenia. It belongs to the City Municipality of Maribor.[4]

The local parish church is dedicated to Saint James and belongs to the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Maribor. It has a Gothic nave dating to the 15th century, a 16th-century belfry, 17th-century chapels, and a sanctuary with 17th- and 18th-century internal furnishings. There is a walled cemetery around the church.[5]

Limbuš Rado Robič Primary School (Slovene: Osnovna Šola Rada Robiča Limbuš) is named after Radivoj Robič (1919–1944), a Partisan machine-gunner.[6] There is a pharmacy in Limbuš.
