There are two churches in the settlement. The first is dedicated to Saint Nicholas and is first mentioned in documents dating to 1490. It was remodeled in the Baroque style in 1773. The main altar is dated to 1802. The second is dedicated to Saint Peter and was built in 1525, probably on the site of an earlier church. Its main altar dates to 1739 and one of the side altars with the date of 1627, dedicated to Saint Valentine, would, was it not so excessively restored at various points, be the oldest surviving examples of a gilded wooden altar in Slovenia.[3]
