Prosenjakovci (pronounced [pɾɔsɛˈnjaːkɔu̯tsi]; Hungarian: Pártosfalva) is a village in the Municipality of Moravske Toplice in the Prekmurje region of Slovenia, close to the border with Hungary.[2]

Unmarked grave

Prosenjakovci is the site of an unmarked grave associated with the Second World War or its aftermath. The Prosenjakovci Grave (Slovene: Grobišče Prosenjakovci) lies southwest of the village, behind the funeral chapel in the village cemetery. It contains the remains of a Hungarian that was shot while crossing the border illegally.[3]
