Dragotinci (in Slovenian pronounced as /dɾaɡɔˈtiːntsi/) is a settlement in the Municipality of Sveti Jurij ob Ščavnici in northeastern Slovenia. The area is part of the traditional Styria region. It is now included in the Mura Statistical Region.[2]

The small village chapel was built in 1900 and redecorated in 1989 with an unusual iconography which apart from the conventional sacral images depicts the sun, the moon and even a piglet.[3]
