Frluga (pronounced [fəɾˈluːɡa]; in older sources also Ferluga[2]) is a small settlement in the Gorjanci Hills in the Municipality of Krško in eastern Slovenia, close to the border with Croatia. The area was traditionally part of Lower Carniola. It is now included in the Lower Sava Statistical Region.[3]

The local church is dedicated to Saint Catherine and belongs to the Parish of Sveti Križ–Podbočje. Its shape indicates Romanesque origins, but the church was rebuilt in 1647.[4]
