Mass grave
Vrh is the site of a mass grave from the period immediately after the Second World War. The Nevinje Cave Mass Grave (Slovene: Grobišče Nevinje jama), also known as the Troha Woods Cave Mass Grave (Jama v Trohovem gozdu), lies in the northeast foothills of Mount Snežnik, 1 kilometer (0.62 mi) east of the Grajševka hunting lodge. It was used after the war to liquidate opponents of the communist movement.[4]

gollark: What are you responding to here?
gollark: Yes, this is mostly the sort of "take things as personal attacks" thing I don't like.
gollark: If you can't discuss things like that without interpreting it as toxic or a personal attack or something, 🐝 you somewhat.
gollark: I don't see how that is "necessarily toxic".
gollark: I suspect that it's because we discuss a wide range of stuff, which is an effect a hypothetical ControversialEsolangs would lack.
