Iška vas is a village on the right bank of the river Iška in the Ig municipality in central Slovenia, just south of the capital Ljubljana. The entire municipality is part of the traditional region of Inner Carniola and is now included in the Central Slovenia statistical region.[2]
There are two churches in the settlement. To the east of the main settlement core is the church dedicated to Saint Michael. It is first mentioned in written documents dating to the early 14th century and contains 16th century frescos and a Lapidarium of mostly Roman tombstones. The second church is built on a slight hill to the north of the settlement. It is dedicated to the Holy Cross. Both belong to the Ig parish.[3]
