Sveto (; ) is a village northwest of Komen in the Littoral region of Slovenia.
Sveto was attested in written sources in 1347 as Suta (and as ze Nider/Obern Zawtt in 1485, Szawt in 1494, and Sutta in 1763âÂÂ87). In the local dialect it is known as SÃÂtu. The medieval inscriptions (including the Middle High German forms with ' < à «) and the dialect name indicate that the modern Slovene name is a hypercorrection of *Suto, which is of unclear origin and may belong to a pre-Slavic substratum.
Sveto is the site of a mass grave from the period immediately after the Second World War. The Preserje Cave Mass Grave () is located between Sveto and Ivanji Grad. It contains the remains of a large number of unidentified people scattered across the entire rubble-covered slope of the shaft. A partial exhumation in 2015 yielded the remains of 23 victims.
The local church is dedicated to Saint Giles and belongs to the Parish of Komen.
