Stična (pronounced [ˈstiːtʃna]; in older sources also Zatičina, German: Sittich) is a village in the Municipality of Ivančna Gorica in central Slovenia. The area is part of the historical region of Lower Carniola. The municipality is now included in the Central Slovenia Statistical Region. It lies just north of Ivančna Gorica and is best known for its Cistercian Abbey. The abbey dates to the 12th century and is the oldest monastery in Slovenia. It includes the hamlets of Rupe, Štorovje (in older sources also Stornje), and Svinjska Vas (Slovene: Svinjska vas, German: Schweindorf). A former hamlet named Kaffeehaus also stood between Svinjska Vas and Rupe.
