Novoselë is a village and a former municipality in the Vlorë County, southwestern Albania. At the 2015 local government reform it became a subdivision of the municipality Vlorë.[1] The population at the 2011 census was 8,209.[2]The village formerly had a railway station, which closed in 1997.[3] The etymology of the village comes from Slavic languages meaning new village, Novo Selo. In Albanian it turned into Novoselë, the village may have been named by Slavic peoples which have invaded this part of Albania and created a new village here, which explains the etymology.
