Mass grave
Lukanja is the site of a mass grave from the Second World War. The Lukanja Mass Grave (Slovene: Grobišče Lukanja) is located on a steep slope about 160 meters (520 ft) south of the peak of Mount Gradišče. It contains the remains of 40 German soldiers killed by an unknown Partisan unit in the summer of 1944.[3]
