Črešnjevci (pronounced [ˈtʃɾeːʃnjɛu̯tsi], in older sources Črešnjovci,[2] German: Kerschbach[2]) is a dispersed settlement immediately south of Gornja Radgona in northeastern Slovenia.[3]

The Slovene author, linguist and beekeeper Peter Dajnko was born in the village in 1787.[4] The house in which he was born is a simple thatched farmhouse and now houses an ethnographic collection.[5]
