Pekre () is a settlement southwest of Maribor in northeastern Slovenia. It belongs to the City Municipality of Maribor.
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.
