Rigonce is a settlement on the right bank of the river Sotla in the Brežice municipality in eastern Slovenia, right on the border with Croatia. The area was traditionally part of Styria. It is now included with the rest of the municipality in the Spodnjeposavska statistical region.[2]

A small chapel with a belfry, built to the northwest of the main settlement, by the tracks of the main Ljubljana to Zagreb railway line that runs through the settlement, is dedicated to Our Lady of Sorrows and was built in the early 20th century.[3]
