History

The village was formerly located at a higher elevation, at Sela Hill (633 meters or 2,077 feet) northwest of the current village core. It was later relocated to its current site at a crossroads, where a gallows stood in the 12th century.[4]

Saint James' Church

The local church, built in the hamlet of Hrastinjaki in the settlement, is dedicated to Saint James (Slovene: sveti Jakob) and belongs to the Parish of Velike Lašče. It is a Baroque building, dating to the mid-17th century.[5]

gollark: Postgres search somehow lacks TF-IDF. I mean, why even?
gollark: Perhaps GEORGE could include a random website feature and search. I could fix the search engine and downscale it.
gollark: Via abuse of certain poorly designed HTTP features, we are able to use arbitrary webservers (part of the GEORGE ring) to perform computation.
