Gorenja Vas pri Leskovcu (pronounced [ɡɔˈɾeːnja ˈʋaːs pɾi lɛˈskoːu̯tsu]; Slovene: Gorenja vas pri Leskovcu, German: Oberdorf[2]) is a village southwest of Leskovec in the Municipality of Krško in eastern Slovenia. The area was traditionally part of Lower Carniola. It is now included with the rest of the municipality in the Lower Sava Statistical Region.[3]

A number of Roman graves have been found in the area, indicating the western extent of the nearby Neviodunum necropolis.[4]
