Podsmreka Castle (Slovene: grad Podsmreka, German: Burg Smreck) is a 16th-century mansion in the settlement of Podsmreka pri Višnji Gori,[1] in the Municipality of Ivančna Gorica, southeastern Slovenia. The manor's name is a compound of the Slovene words pod and smreka, meaning 'beneath [the] spruce'. The Municipality of Ivančna Gorica had sought to have the mansion restored as a motel.
