Križ (German: Kreuz)[2] is a village in the Municipality of Komenda in the Upper Carniola region of Slovenia.
The local church is dedicated to Saint Paul.[3] There used to be a castle on a small hill above the settlement, but this was burned down and demolished by the Partisans in November 1943.[4]
