Komenski Dobravi was established in April 1944 as an emergency partisan hospital, led by Dr. Tine Zajc – Miha. In addition to the doctor, the hospital had two nurses, a political commissioner, two couriers, and an economist as permanent staff. Usually, there were between seven and eight patients or wounded partisans in the hospital.
In the early hours of June 11, 1944, the hospital was suddenly attacked. All staff and patients were killed and thrown into the burning hospital barrack. Eleven fighters lost their lives, while two managed to escape because they were outside the barrack.
After liberation, the Slovenians exhumed the bodies. Four of them were buried by their relatives in the Cerkljanško cemetery and a memorial stone was erected for them.
