Oštrc (pronounced [ɔˈʃtəɾts]; in older sources also Osterc,[2] German: Osterz[2]) is a village in the foothills of the Gorjanci Hills in the Municipality of Kostanjevica na Krki in eastern Slovenia. The area was traditionally part of Lower Carniola. It is now included in the Lower Sava Statistical Region.[3]
