Šilentabor is a small settlement to the north of Zagorje in the Pivka Municipality in the Inner Carniola region of Slovenia.[2]

Šilentabor Castle was a 15th century castle, of which only few ruinous remains are visible today. Archaeological excavations have revealed remains of a Medieval defence structure and yielded numerous artifacts, confirming construction and life within the castle complex from the 15th to 17th centuries, as mentioned in historical sources.[3]

The local church, built to the south of the settlement, is dedicated to Saint Martin and belongs to the Zagorje Parish.[4]
