Čanje is a settlement in the hills above Blanca in the Sevnica municipality in central Slovenia. The area is part of the historical region of Lower Styria. The municipality is now included in the Lower Sava statistical region.[2]
There are two churches in the settlement. One on a hill just southwest of the part of the settlement known as Gradec is dedicated to Saint Agnes (Slovene: Sveta Neža) and dates to the 13th century with a 19th centurz belfry.[3] The second stands on the Gračka gora hill to the east of Brinje. It dates to the 14th century and is dedicated to Saint Mary.[4] Both belong to the Sevnica parish.
