Sava is a settlement on the left bank of the river Sava (from which it gets its name) in central Slovenia. It lies in the Litija municipality. The area was traditionally part of Lower Styria and is now included with the rest of the municipality into the Central Slovenia statistical region.[2]
The parish church in the settlement is dedicated to Saint Nicholas and belongs to the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Ljubljana. It was built in 1736 on the site of an earlier church and extened in 1844.[3]
