Janževski Vrh (pronounced [ˈjaːnʒɛu̯ski ˈʋəɾx]) is a settlement in the hills above the right bank of the Drava River in the Municipality of Podvelka in Slovenia.[2]

It gets its name from the local church, dedicated to John the Baptist (Janž in the local dialect). It belongs to the Parish of Ribnica na Pohorju and is a Late Gothic building from the first half of the 16th century. The internal furnishings date to the 17th century.[3]
