The grave of the fighter NOV, who fell on 1.8.1944, is part of the Amrovi family tomb. On the plaque are also inscribed other members of the Zagradišnik family. The grave was arranged in 1975.

The son of Jožeta and Marije was born on 30th December 1921 in Novi Štifti. As a child he had to work as a shepherd for farmers, but later he learned the trade of a tailor in Stranjah and became a tailor's assistant.

In 1943 he was mobilized into the German army. After half a year he came on leave, stayed a few days at home, and then went to Novo Celje, where he joined the partisans and entered the Šlandrovo brigade on 16th April 1944.

He participated in the battles for the liberation of Ljubnega, where he fell in August 1944. After the war, his body was transported to the cemetery in Novi Štifti for burial.
