Varivode is a village in the municipality of Kistanje, Croatia.
Prior to the Yugoslav Wars of 1991-1995 the village was a part of the municipality of Knin, and according to the census of 1991, it had a population of 477 people, all of them ethnic Serbs.
During the war, Varivode and the surrounding area were incorporated into Republika Srpska Krajina. On 28 September 1995, almost two months after Operation Storm, the Varivode massacre was committed by men in Croatian military uniforms and armed civilians who killed between 9 and 12 elderly Serb civilians, some of whom disabled.
Few Serbs have returned to the village; in the 2001 Croatian census, Varivode had 93 inhabitants. In the 2011 Croatian census, Varivode had 127 inhabitants.
Every year during the summer months Varivode is once again heavily populated as Serbians from around the world return to their motherland. The official Saints day which the village celebrates is on the 2nd of August and is called Sveti Ilija.
