Potok pri Vačah is a small settlement to the east of Vače in the Litija municipality in central Slovenia. Traditionally, the area was part of Lower Styria and is now included with the rest of the municipality into the Central Slovenia statistical region.[2]

The remains of the Romanesque Ljubek or Lebek castle, probably dating to the 11th century and first mentioned in written documents dating to 1220, can be found to the south of the settlement. The castle was destroyed in the peasant revolt of 1515 and was later rebuilt. Today, it is only a ruin.[3]
