Radomerščak (pronounced [ˈɾaːdɔmɛɾʃtʃak]) is a settlement in the Municipality of Ljutomer in northeastern Slovenia. The area traditionally belonged to the Styria region and is now included in the Mura Statistical Region.[2]

The Slovene philologist Franc Miklošič was born in the village in 1813. His birth house is preserved as a museum. It dates to the 17th century and was expanded in 1926 when a commemorative plaque was also unveiled. It was restored in 1960 and again in 1991.[3]

The chapel-shrine in the north of the settlement was built in the late 19th century.[4]
