Cerklje ob Krki is a settlement on the left bank of the river Krka in the Brežice Municipality in eastern Slovenia. It is best known for the Cerklje ob Krki Airbase, to the north of the settlement. The area was traditionally part of Lower Carniola. It is now included in the Spodnjeposavska statistical region.[2]
The parish church is dedicated to Saint Mark and belongs to the Roman Catholic Diocese of Novo Mesto. It was built in the early 20th century to replace a medieval building.[3]
