A rectangular stone in the shape of Triglav with a marble plate and the names of ten fighters Radomeljske units, fallen in battle against the German occupier on 28. 10. 1941. Erected 3. 8. 1950 (ZB NOV Blagovica), supplemented 2. 8. 1978 (ZB Domžale). The unit was issued by the priest Anton Prvinšek, at whose place the unit was stationed, who had sent his nephew to Blagovica to the Germans. The battle with the 322nd German battalion of conscripts lasted half an hour. The unit immediately lost three fighters, then split into two groups. From the first group, ten fighters fell, who had tried to cross the stream, four were captured; one of them (Ivan Semen) managed to escape, three were shot as spies. Five fighters were saved, among them Matija Dermastia- Urban. The Germans had only one casualty. The dead were left lying for one day, then buried at the site. The traitor received a reward of 2000 marks, moved to Blagovica, and then probably to Carinthia. With the breaking up of the Radomeljske unit, resistance in these areas ceased for some time.
