Dragovanja vas is a small settlement to the southwest of Črnomelj municipality in the Bela Krajina area of southeastern Slovenia. The area is part of the traditional region of Lower Carniola and is now included in the Jugovzhodna Slovenija statistical region.[2]

The local church, built on the southern outskirts of the village, is dedicated to Saint Oswald (Slovene: Sveti Ožbolt) and belongs to the Dragatuš parish. It is first mentioned in written documents dating to 1526, but owes its current Baroque look to a major remodelling in the 18th century. The main altar dates to 1876.[3]
