On the façade of the former primary school, a commemorative plaque, measuring 0.40 x 0.50 m and located approximately 2.50 m above the ground, has been installed in memory of the former teachers of this school who were shot by Italian fascists.
The Italian occupiers shot 20 locals during cleansing actions on 24 July 1942, among them the organizer of the NOG teacher Metod Mervič and Viktor Šinkovč, as well as the chairman of the local OF committee Franček Popit.
