Kladje nad Blanco (pronounced [ˈklaːdjɛ nad ˈblaːntsɔ]) is a settlement east of Blanca on the left bank of the Sava River in the Municipality of Sevnica in central Slovenia. The area is part of the historical region of Styria. The municipality is now included in the Lower Sava Statistical Region.[2]

There are two Iron Age burial mounds near the settlement. Although they do not belong to the same era, local legend associates them with Attila's grave.[4]
