Hrašče (pronounced [ˈxɾaːʃtʃɛ]; German: Hraschtsche,^[2] Italian: Crastie) is a village west of Postojna in the Inner Carniola region of Slovenia.^[3]

Name

Hrašče was attested in written sources in 1498 as Krasschach, with a locative ending. The name Hrašče, like similar names (e.g., Hraše, Hrastje, Hrastovica, Hrastnik), is derived from the plural demonym *Hrasťane, in turn derived from the word hrast 'oak', and originally referred to the local vegetation.^[4]

Church

The local church in the settlement is dedicated to Saint Anne and belongs to the Parish of Hrenovice.^[5]
