Ledina (in Slovenian pronounced as /lɛˈdiːna/) is a dispersed settlement in the hills northwest of Sevnica in east-central Slovenia. The area is part of the historical region of Styria. The entire Municipality of Sevnica is now included in the Lower Sava Statistical Region.[2]
Ledina is the site of a mass grave from the end of the Second World War. The Ledina Mass Grave (Slovenian: Grobišče Ledina) is located along the road south of the settlement. It contains the remains of five German soldiers that were shot at the end of the war.[3]
