Rošpoh (pronounced [ˈɾoːʃpɔx]; in older sources also Rožpoh,[2] German: Rossbach[2]) is a dispersed settlement in the western Slovene Hills (Slovene: Slovenske gorice) in northeastern Slovenia.
The hamlet of Mali Rošpoh in the northern part of the settlement lies in the Municipality of Kungota.
[3] The remaining part of the settlement, which the village was split from in 1982,[4] belongs to the municipality of Maribor.
The name is originally a hydronym that was transferred to the adjacent settlement.
It is derived from the Middle High German compound Rosbach (from ros 'horse' + bach 'creek').
