Cvišlerji (German: Zwischlern) is a settlement to the east of Kočevje in southern Slovenia. The area is part of the traditional region of Lower Carniola and is now included in the Southeast Slovenia statistical region.[2]

The local church was burnt down during the Second World War in 1942 and demolished in 1947. It was dedicated to John the Baptist and is first mentioned in written documents dating to 1526 though it was probably a 15th century building.[3]
