Svibno (pronounced [ˈsʋiːbnɔ]; German: Scharfenberg[2]) is a settlement in the Municipality of Radeče in eastern Slovenia. The area is part of the historical region of Lower Carniola. The municipality is now included in the Lower Sava Statistical Region; until January 2014 it was part of the Savinja Statistical Region.[3] It includes the hamlets of Malarija, Cumer, Pristava, Rasberg, and Podlog.[4]

Svibo was attested in written sources as Scharffenberg in 1169, Scharphenberch c. 1175, and Sappffenberch in 1191, among other spellings.[5] The name is derived from the Slovene common noun sviba 'dogwood', referring to the local vegetation.[6]
