Brezovo (pronounced [ˈbɾeːzɔʋɔ]) is a settlement in the Municipality of Litija in central Slovenia. Traditionally the area was part of Lower Carniola and is now included with the rest of the municipality in the Central Sava Statistical Region; until January 2014 the municipality was part of the Central Slovenia Statistical Region.[2]

The local church is dedicated to Saint Nicholas and belongs to the Parish of Gabrovka. It was first mentioned in written documents dating to 1373. In 1850 its nave was extended and a belfry added.[3]
