Devina is a settlement immediately north of Slovenska Bistrica in northeastern Slovenia. The area is part of the traditional region of Lower Styria. It is now included with the rest of the Slovenska Bistrica municipality into the Podravje statistical region.[2]

A small chapel in the village centre was built in 1947 in memory of four locals who died fighting in the Second World War.[3]
