Church edit

 
Holy Cross Church

The local church is dedicated to the Holy Cross and belongs to the Parish of Prežganje. It was originally a medieval chapel that was extended in 1869 when a nave was added.[4] The interior furnishings, including the altar, the Stations of the Cross, and the organ, date from the 1869 renovation.[5] The church was established by monks from Stična because the village once belonged to the jurisdiction of the Stična monastery.[6]
