Three monoliths on the spiral plateau are dedicated to 20 fallen fighters and victims from the village (author Marko Pogačnik, 1980). Nearby, on 30.5.1982, a memorial was erected to the event of 20. 6. 1944 (source: RKD), or 2.6.1944 (source: commemorative plaque on the adjacent memorial), when the occupier, in a brutal action, arrested 173 villagers and burned 48 houses.

At this location, two commemorative plaques are attached to a flat stone block.

The first was located on the house Cesta 54. The inscription differs from the main memorial only in the date of discovery: June 1958. Photo 4/3

The second was located on the house Cesta 14 and was unveiled on 22.7.1952. Photo 4/2

The plaques were later moved to this commemorative site.
