Vrhe (pronounced [ˈʋəɾxɛ]) is a settlement in the City Municipality of Slovenj Gradec in northern Slovenia. The area was traditionally part of Styria. The entire municipality is now included in the Carinthia Statistical Region.[2]

There are two churches in the settlement. The church dedicated to Saint Agnes belongs to the Parish of Sele. It dates to the second half of the 14th century.[3] A second church in the northern part of the settlement is dedicated to Saint Urban and was built around 1500.[4]
