Pavlova Vas (pronounced [ˈpaːu̯lɔʋa ˈʋaːs]; Slovene: Pavlova vas, German: Paulusberg[2]) is a settlement in the hills west of Bizeljsko in the Municipality of Brežice in eastern Slovenia. The area was traditionally part of Styria. It is now included with the rest of the municipality in the Lower Sava Statistical Region.[3]

The local church in the settlement is dedicated to Saint Gertrude and belongs to the Parish of Pišece. It is a late-16th-century building that was refurbished in the Baroque style in the 18th century. Its belfry was rebuilt in the 19th century.[4]
