Brezje (pronounced [ˈbɾeːzjɛ], German: Bresie[2]) is a former village in central Slovenia in the Municipality of Škofljica.

Brezje is a clustered settlement located in the northwest part of the territory of Smrjene,[3] at the top of Brezje Hill (Slovene: Brezovski hrib, elevation: 489 meters or 1,604 feet).

It is derived from the Slovene common noun brezje 'birch grove', referring to the local vegetation.

[4] Brezje was annexed by Smrjene in 1953, ending its existence as a separate settlement.
