Drnovo (pronounced [dəɾˈnɔːʋɔ] or [dəɾˈnoːʋɔ]; German: Dernowo[2]) is a village south of Leskovec in the City Municipality of Krško in eastern Slovenia. It lies just north of the motorway from Ljubljana to Zagreb. The area is part of the traditional region of Lower Carniola. It is now included with the rest of the municipality in the Lower Sava Statistical Region.[3]
The local church is dedicated to John the Baptist and belongs to the Parish of Leskovec pri Krškem. It is a Baroque building from the 17th century. Its belfry was made higher in 1907.[4]
