Bezenškovo Bukovje (pronounced [ˈbeːzənʃkɔʋɔ buˈkoːu̯jɛ]) is a settlement in the Municipality of Vojnik in eastern Slovenia. It lies in the hills east of Frankolovo off the main road from Vojnik to Slovenske Konjice. The area was traditionally part of the Styria region. It is now included with the rest of the municipality in the Savinja Statistical Region.
The name of the settlement was changed from Bukovje to Bezenškovo Bukovje in 1953.
A small chapel-shrine in the village was built in 1897 at the initiative of Anton Bezenšek.
