Konjšica is a settlement in the hills on the right bank of the river Sava in the Litija municipality in central Slovenia. A small part of the settlement also lies in the Zagorje ob Savi municipality. Traditionally the area was part of Lower Carniola and is now included with the rest of the municipality into the Central Slovenia statistical region.[2]

The local church is dedicated to Saint Bartholomew (Slovene: Sveti Jernej) and belongs to the Podkum Parish. It dates to 1780.[3]

Famous conductor Carlos Kleiber and his wife Stanislava Brezovar are buried to the local cemetery.
