Ciglence (pronounced [tsiˈɡleːntsɛ]) is a settlement in the Municipality of Duplek in northeastern Slovenia. It lies on the southwestern edge of the Slovene Hills (Slovene: Slovenske gorice), southeast of Maribor. The area is part of the traditional region of Styria. The municipality is now included in the Drava Statistical Region.[2]

The village chapel-shrine with a small belfry dates to the early 20th century. There are two other small roadside chapel-shrines in the settlement. One dates to the first half of the 19th century and the second to the late 19th century.[3]
