Name

Sušica was attested in historical sources as Durre in 1250, Darrendorff in 1463, Dardorff in 1464, and Schusitz in 1505.[4][5] Like the German names (cf. dürr 'arid'), the Slovenian name is derived from the adjective suh 'dry', originally referring to a seasonal creek that would go dry during droughts.[5] Locally, the village is known as Šica.[5][6]

Church

The local church is dedicated to Saint Stephen (Slovene: sveti Štefan) and belongs to the Parish of Krka. It dates to the late 15th century.[7]
