Kungota pri Ptuju (pronounced [ˈkuːŋɡɔta pɾi ˈptuːju], in older sources Sveta Jungert,[2] German: Sankt Kunigund[2]) is a village in the Municipality of Kidričevo in northeastern Slovenia.

It is now included with the rest of the municipality in the Drava Statistical Region.

[3] The name of the settlement was changed from Sveta Kungota (literally, 'Saint Cunigunde') to Kungota pri Ptuju (literally, 'Cunigunde near Ptuj') in 1955.

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 local church, from which the settlement gets its name, is dedicated to Saint Cunigunde and belongs to the Parish of Hajdina.
