Podlehnik (Template:IPA-sl; Template:Lang-de[2]) is a settlement and a municipality in the Haloze Hills in eastern Slovenia. The area traditionally belonged to the region of Styria. It is now included in the Drava Statistical Region.[3]

The settlement developed around 13th-century Lehnik Castle. The castle was destroyed during Ottoman raids in 1532 and very few traces of it remain (foundations of a tower and a defense ditch).[4] What was originally the castle chapel is now the local church, dedicated to the Virgin Mary, and was expanded in the 16th and 18th centuries.[5]
