Laplje Selo (Serbian Cyrillic: Лапље Село, Albanian: Llapllaselle) is a village in the Gračanica municipality of Kosovo.[2] Laplje Selo was part of the Pristina municipality before the Gračanica municipality was created.

It is a Serb enclave situated south of Čaglavica, and has a supermajority of ethnic Serbs. During the Kosovo War, Serbs were displaced, after more than a decade, sixteen families returned to their village, on February 6, 2010.[3] That number has since increased to just over 20 families.[4]

Various problems, some of them related to anti-Serb sentiment, persist for returnees. There is no running water,[4] and harassment takes place, such as cemetery desecration.[5][6]
