Belogardists killed Janez Nemanič in Čurilah and Janez Pečarič on Svržak. On the partially shaped stone, an inscription in memory of the partisans who were killed at this place in 1943 is engraved. The monument was designed by Milan Bajc and was erected in 1982.

Because of their participation in the liberation movement and because their closest relatives were partisans, the Belogardists from the village took revenge on Janez Nemanič and Janez Pečarič from Čurilah. They killed the first on 10 January and the second on 29 May 1943.
The memorial plaque, built into the natural rock, designed according to the idea of Milan Bajc, stands by the road near the shop in Čurilah. It was unveiled by the ZB NOV Čurila on 22 July 1982.
Note: It was unveiled by the ZB Rosalnice and the Municipal Committee of the ZZB NOV Metlika.
