History
In 1997, part of the settlement was split off as a separate settlement and named Bukov Vrh nad Visokim.[4]

The local church is dedicated to Our Lady of Sorrows, locally known as Holy Sabbath Church (Slovene: sveta Sobota). It was originally a Gothic structure but was rebuilt and expanded in 1739.[5]
