Haemimontus () was a Late Antiquity Roman Empire and early Byzantine Roman province, situated in northeastern Thrace. It was subordinate to the Diocese of Thrace and to the praetorian prefecture of the East. Its capital was Adrianople, and it was headed by a praeses. In the 5th century, Epiphanius in a report mentions a three Eparchy within the province; the Diocese of Adrianopolis, the Diocese of Plotinoupolis and an unnamed third diocese. The province was superseded by the Theme of Thrace during the 7th century, but survived as an Eastern Orthodox ecclesiastical metropolis until late Byzantine times.
