Vrh pri Križu (pronounced [ˈʋəɾx pɾi ˈkɾiːʒu]) is a village in the Municipality of Žužemberk in southeastern Slovenia. It lies above the left bank of the Krka River northwest of Žužemberk. The area is part of the historical region of Lower Carniola. The municipality is now included in the Southeast Slovenia Statistical Region.[2]
