Vransko is a small town and municipality in central Slovenia. It lies on the western edge of the Savinja Valley. This area is part of the traditional region of Lower Styria. The municipality is now part of the Savinja statistical region.^[2]

The parish church in the settlement is dedicated to Saint Michael and belongs to the Roman Catholic Diocese of Celje. It was first mentioned in written documents dating to 1123 with various extensions and rebuilding over the centuries. It is now a three-naved church. One of the chapels contains an altar by the Baroque sculptor Francesco Robba.^[3]
