Ilijaš is a town and municipality located in Sarajevo Canton of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina, an entity of Bosnia and Herzegovina. It is located northwest of the inner city of Sarajevo, making it de facto a town and suburb of Sarajevo. The Ilijaš Municipality was established in May 1952 with the organization of people's committees. Those local people's committees founded the local municipalities, which led to the self-management of the municipalities, including the municipality of Ilijaš. Ilijaš is home to the Serbian Orthodox Church of the Holy Prophet Elijah, which was built in the late 19th century.

The oldest traces of life in these areas date back to the Paleolithic era, as evidenced by the Bijambar Caves complex on the Crnorijek Plateau.
