Stara Oselica (pronounced [ˈstaːɾa ˈoːsɛlitsa]; German: Altoßlitz[2]) is a dispersed settlement in the Municipality of Gorenja Vas–Poljane in the Upper Carniola region of Slovenia.[3]

The local church is dedicated to the Conversion of Saint Paul. It is a baroque building from the late 17th or early 18th century. Its belfry is older and was made taller at the time the current church was built. The main altar dates to the first half of the 18th century.[4]
