Šentviška Gora is the main settlement in the hills between the valleys of the Bača and Idrijca rivers, known as the Šentvid Plateau (Slovene: Šentviška planota), in the Municipality of Tolmin in the Littoral region of Slovenia.[2]
The parish church, from which the settlement and the entire plateau gets its name, is dedicated to Saint Vitus and belongs to the Koper Diocese.[3] It was first mentioned as the seat of the parish in documents dating to 1192, although the current building is Baroque in style. Its interior was painted in the early 20th century by Tone Kralj.
