The local church in the village is dedicated to Saints Philip and James and belongs to the parish of Olimje. It was originally a Gothic church first mentioned in documents dating to 1545, but was greatly rebuilt in the late 18th century with additions from 1826 and the late 19th century, although some Gothic frescos are still visible.[3]
