Šent Jurij (pronounced [ˈʃɛnt ˈjuːɾii̯]; German: Sankt Georgen,[2] commonly abbreviated as Št.

Jurij) is a village in the Municipality of Grosuplje in central Slovenia.

[3] The name of the settlement was changed from Sveti Jurij pri Grosupljem (literally, 'Saint George near Grosuplje') to Podtabor pri Grosupljem (literally, 'below the fort near Grosuplje') in 1952.

The name was changed on the basis of the 1948 Law on Names of Settlements and Designations of Squares, Streets, and Buildings as part of efforts by Slovenia's postwar communist government to remove religious elements from toponyms.

[4][5][6] The parish church from which the settlement gets its name is dedicated to Saint George (Slovene: sveti Jurij) and belongs to the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Ljubljana.
