Babna Polica is a small village southeast of Stari Trg pri Ložu in the Municipality of Loška Dolina in the Inner Carniola region of Slovenia.[2]

Church

The local church on the northern edge of the settlement is dedicated to Saint Anthony the Hermit and belongs to the Parish of Stari Trg.[3] It was first mentioned in written sources dating to 1403. The date on the door casing, 1589, indicates a late 16th-century rebuilding of the original church. The main altar dates to 1716.[4]
