Četena Ravan (pronounced [tʃɛˈteːna ɾaˈʋaːn]) is a small settlement in the Municipality of Gorenja Vas–Poljane in the Upper Carniola region of Slovenia.[2]

The local church is dedicated to Saint Bricius (Slovene: sveti Brikcij). It is a late gothic structure with a five-sided apse and a square nave. Although it was extended in the late 18th century, early 16th-century frescos, some painted by Jernej of Loka, survive in the sanctuary. The main altar dates to the late 17th century with 16th-century statues.[3]
