Kališe (pronounced [kaˈliːʃɛ]; in older sources also Kališče, [2] German: Kalische [2]) is a settlement in the Municipality of Železniki in the Upper Carniola region of Slovenia.
The name Kališe is derived from the Slovene common noun kal '(small) pond' and refers to a place with such a feature. Other Slovene toponyms with the same root include Kal, Kalce, Kališče, Kališnik, and Kalše. [3]
