Toljen Mirosavljević or Toljen of Hum (Latin: Tollen de Chulmia;[1] fl. 1190) was the Prince of Hum[1] serving under the Serbian Grand Principality.

His father was Miroslav of Hum, of the Vojislavljević dynasty, his mother was a sister of Ban Kulin of Bosnia.

He was betrothed (27 Jul 1189, 24 Apr 1190) to the daughter of Berthold IV, "Duke of Merano Marchese di Istria" and his wife Agnes von Wettin. The betrothal was arranged by Frederic Barbarossa during his passing through Serbia during the Third Crusade, to establish good relations with the Serbs. Together they had one son, Toljen II, who succeeded as Prince later in 1227-1239.[2]
