Church
St. Ulrich's Church

The local church is built on a small hill west of the settlement and is dedicated to Saint Ulrich (Slovene: sveti Urh) and belongs to the Parish of Horjul. It originally had a defence wall around it to protect local people from Ottoman raids in the 15th century. The original church burnt down in the early 18th century and the current building was erected in 1751, using the stone from the redundant defence walls.[2]

gollark: I really do *not* like hydro going on about how "altruistic" he is when he also goes around extracting huge profits. I mean, self-interest, sure. Fine with me. But effectively lying about it?
gollark: I mean, he probably loses money buying useless things like diamond, but profits everywhere else.
gollark: "Losing money"? Really?
gollark: I buy at 0.5KST per iron ingot and sell at 0.55.
gollark: The sell shop, I mean.
