Zgornje Hoče

Zgornje Hoče (pronounced [ˈzɡóːɾnjɛ ˈxòːtʃɛ, - ˈxóː-]) is a settlement in the Municipality of Hoče–Slivnica in northeastern Slovenia.

It lies at the eastern foothills of the Pohorje range south of Maribor.

The name is originally a plural demonym (*Xoťane) derived from the nickname *Xotъ (based on a longer name such as *Xotimirъ).

[3] A chapel-shrine with a small belfry in the northwestern part of the settlement was built in the late 19th century.
