Lovech (Bulgarian: Ловеч, pronounced [ˈɫɔvɛtʃ], international transliteration Loveč, Romanian: Lovcea) is a city in north-central Bulgaria. It is the administrative centre of the Lovech Province and of the subordinate Lovech Municipality. The city is located about 150 kilometres (93 miles) northeast from the capital city of Sofia.

The Battle of Lovcha, or Loftcha (today Lovech), was a battle of the Russo-Turkish War (1877–1878) which occurred during the siege of Plevna. Russian forces successfully reduced the fortress at Lovcha, which had protected Plevna's communication and supply lines.In July 1877, shortly after the siege of Plevna began, the garrison's commander, Osman Pasha, received 15 battalions of reinforcements from Sofia.

The Siege of Lovech (Bulgarian: Обсада на Ловеч, Obsada na Lovech) took place in the spring of 1187 between the forces of Bulgaria and the Byzantine Empire.
