Ždinja Vas (pronounced [ˈʒdiːnja ˈʋaːs]; Slovene: Ždinja vas, German: Seidendorf^[2]) is a settlement in the hills north of Novo Mesto in southeastern Slovenia. The area is part of the traditional region of Lower Carniola and is now included in the Southeast Slovenia Statistical Region.^[3]

Name[]

Ždinja Vas was attested in historical sources as Sigilsdorff and Sitingisdorff in 1145, Sittichendorff in 1250, Sydingendorf in 1252, and Sidigendorff in 1321, among other spellings.^[4]^[5] Based on the medieval transcriptions, the name may be derived from *Židihnja vas 'Jewish village'.^[5]
