Idrija pri Bači (pronounced [ˈiːdɾija pɾi ˈbaːtʃi]) is a village on the right bank of the Idrijca River in the Municipality of Tolmin in the Littoral region of Slovenia.[2]

The parish church in the settlement is dedicated to John the Baptist and belongs to the Koper Diocese.[3]

Archaeological excavations near the settlement in the late 19th century revealed a late Iron Age (5th century BC) necropolis of 47 graves with finds of tools and inscriptions in Venetic.[4]
