Name

The name Gornja Topla Reber 'upper Topla Reber' contrasts with neighboring Dolnja Topla Reber 'lower Topla Reber', which stands 137 meters (449 ft) below the former. The shared part of the names means 'warm slope', referring to the geographical position of the settlements on a sun-exposed southwest-facing slope.[4] The semantically corresponding German names Oberwarmberg and Unterwarmberg share the same contrastive relation.

History

Gornja Topla Reber was a village inhabited by Gottschee Germans. In the winter of 1941–1942 one of the first Partisan bases in the Kočevje area was established in the vicinity. The settlement was burned by Italian troops on 14 August 1942 during the Rog Offensive.[3] Together with Dolnja Topla Reber, it was merged into the settlement of Topla Reber in 1955.[5]
