Velika Slevica (pronounced [ˈʋeːlika ˈsleːʋitsa]; in older sources also Velika Slivica,[2] German: Großsliwitz[2]) is a village southwest of Velike Lašče in central Slovenia. The entire Municipality of Velike Lašče is part of the traditional region of Lower Carniola and is now included in the Central Slovenia Statistical Region.[3]

The local church, built on a grassy slope above the village to the northwest, is dedicated to the Annunciation of Mary and belongs to the Parish of Velike Lašče. It was built in the last quarter of the 17th century.[4]
