Kokarje is a village on the right bank of the Dreta River in the Municipality of Nazarje in Slovenia. Traditionally the area belonged to the Styria region and is now included in the Savinja statistical region.[2]

The local church, built on a slight elevation south of the settlement, is dedicated to the Virgin Mary and belongs to the Parish of Rečica ob Savinji. It was first mentioned in written documents dating to 1453, but the building was extensively rebuilt in the 17th and 19th centuries.[3]
