Šilentabor (pronounced [ˈʃiːlɛntabɔɾ]; in older sources also Tabor,[2] German: Schillertabor[2]) is a small settlement north of Zagorje in the Municipality of Pivka in the Inner Carniola region of Slovenia.

[7] There are some finds that show there were two hillforts from the Iron Age (around the eighth century BC) along the ridge, which were later used by the Romans: Šilentabor and Gradišče.

One of the only records from that time mentioning Šilentabor Castle was The Glory of the Duchy of Carniola by Johann Weikhard von Valvasor.

Archaeological excavations have revealed the remains of a medieval defence structure and yielded numerous artifacts, confirming construction and life within the castle complex from the 15th to 17th centuries, as mentioned in historical sources.

[8] The local church, built south of the settlement, is dedicated to Saint Martin and belongs to the Parish of Zagorje.

[10] It stands on its own nearby hill called St. Martin at an elevation of 723 m.[4] It has a chancel with Gothic elements and frescoes from 1464, which are in the Istrian-Karst artistic style.
