Pekre (Script error: No such module "IPA".) is a settlement southwest of Maribor in northeastern Slovenia. It belongs to the City Municipality of Maribor.[1]

The local landmark is the church on top of a small hill to the east of the main settlement. It is dedicated to Our Lady of the Seven Sorrows and was built as a pilgrimage church between 1832 and 1835. There are also four small chapel-shrines along the road leading up to the church.[2]

The first military clash between the Yugoslav People's Army and the Slovenian Territorial Defence in Slovenia's war of independence happened in Pekre on 23 May 1991.[3]
