Gorenje Jezero (in Slovenian pronounced as /ɡɔˈɾeːnjɛ ˈjeːzɛɾɔ/; German: Oberseedorf[2]) is a village on the southern edge of Lake Cerknica in the Municipality of Cerknica in the Inner Carniola region of Slovenia.[3]
The name Gorenje Jezero means 'upper lake' and is a semantic contrast to the neighboring village of Dolenje Jezero (literally, 'lower lake'), which stands about 20m (70feet) lower in elevation. Like other villages named Jezero, the name refers to a local landscape element—in this case, Lake Cerknica.[4]
The local church is in the southwest part of the settlement. It is dedicated to Saint Cantius and belongs to the Parish of Stari Trg pri Ložu.[5]
