Vižmarje (pronounced [ˈʋiːʒmaɾjɛ], German: Wischmarje[2][3]) is a formerly independent settlement in the northern part of the capital Ljubljana in central Slovenia.

To the south, Vižmarje extends to Celovška cesta, and to the southeast to Šentvid, which starts approximately where A2 motorway was built.

Vižmarje was attested in written sources in 1283 as Geiselmannsdorf bei Laibach (and as Geyselmansdorf in 1331 and Geismanstorf in 1385, among other variations, as well as Vsmariach and Vsmarich in 1554, and Vismarie in 1763–87).

The Slovene name originates from the fused prepositional phrase *v (J)ižmarje 'in Jižmarje', based on the personal name *Jižmar, which was borrowed (and palatalized) from the Middle High German name Gîs(al)mâr.

[2][3] According to a folk tale of the inhabitants of Vižmarje, the name of the settlement originates from the exclamation "viš Marijo!
