Crngrob is a small village in the Municipality of Škofja Loka in the Upper Carniola region of Slovenia.

It is best known for its pilgrimage church dedicated to The Annunciation. The first mention of a church on this site dates to the late 13th century. In the 14th century it was expanded and after 1410 a southern arcade was built. In the mid 15th century a third aisle was added and in 1551 the belfry was heightened and in 1661 its onion-shaped dome was built. Its characteristic neogothic columned porch was erected in 1858[2].
