Srobotnik (pronounced [sɾɔˈboːtnik]; German: Gutenberg,[1] sometimes Guttenberg,[2] Gottscheerish: Liəlochpargəl[3]) is a remote abandoned settlement in the Municipality of Dolenjske Toplice in southern Slovenia. The area is part of the traditional region of Lower Carniola and is now included in the Southeast Slovenia Statistical Region.[4] Its territory is now part of the village of Občice.
The name Srobotnik is based on the common Slovene noun srobot 'clematis' with the addition of the associative suffix '-nik'. The Gottschee German name Liəlochpargəl is semantically similar, derived from the dialect word Lieloch 'clematis'[5][6] (from Middle High German liele[7]) + pargəl 'little mountain'. The names thus refer to the local vegetation. The standard German name Gutenberg (literally, 'good mountain') may simply be an optimistic name expressing wishes for a good harvest.[3]
