Svinjarevci is a settlement in Vukovar-Syrmia County, Croatia. It is located southwest of the city of Vukovar along state road D57. It is composed of 7 streets.

==Name== The past worker of a local school claims that from old pre-90s war records on today's village territory there was a big acorn forest in which local people would build farms and breed pigs. For some of those people, it was too far to travel to easily, so they slowly one by one started to move in. Little by little, they built houses and after some time, the whole village was built, with the name Svinjarevci. But before, Svinjarevci was on the land of "Svetinje", which is proven by artefacts dug out on its territory.
