Sveti Duh na Ostrem Vrhu (pronounced [ˈsʋeːti ˈduːx na ˈoːstɾɛm ˈʋəɾxu]) is a dispersed settlement in the hills north of Selnica ob Dravi in northeastern Slovenia, right on the border with Austria.^[2]

It gets its name from the local parish church dedicated to the Holy Spirit (Slovene: Sveti Duh). It is a single-nave building with a belfry, dating to 1675. Right next to it is a second, smaller church, dedicated to Saint Augustine. It was built in 1693.^[3]
