Qasr Libya or Qasr Lebia ({{langx|ar|قصر ليبيا}}, lit. 'Lebia Castle', Lebia/Libya being a corruption of the ancient name Olbia) is a small town in northern Libya about {{convert|66|km}} northwest of Bayda. In ancient times, it was a Roman / Byzantine town called Olbia and Theodorias, the ruins of which were excavated in the 1950s. The town contains a museum with fifty Byzantine mosaics.Azema, James (2000). "East of Barce".
