Hraše (pronounced [ˈxɾaːʃɛ]; German: Hrasche[2]) is a settlement in the Municipality of Medvode in the Upper Carniola region of Slovenia.
[3] Hraše was first attested in written sources in 1118 as Grasach (and as Grosschach in 1436 and Krasach and Chrasach in 1499).
Like similar names (e.g., Hrastje, Hrastovica, Hrastnik), it originally referred to the local vegetation.
[2] The local church, built outside the main settlement, is dedicated to Saint James.
The current building dates to the late 15th century but was later remodelled in the Baroque fashion.
