It lies on the left bank of the Temenica River, just east of Trebnje. The area is part of the traditional region of Lower Carniola.

Name
[edit]The name Dolenja Nemška Vas literally means 'lower German village' and contrasts with Gorenja Nemška Vas (literally, 'upper German village') about 4 kilometers (2.5 mi) to the west, which is 35 meters (115 ft) higher in elevation. These names refer to former ethnic Germans living in the villages, mostly from Ortenburg in Bavaria.[3]
