Geography

Črna lies in a set of clearings on a slope below Rupe Hill. The surrounding forest is a mix of spruce and beech. Black Gorge (Slovene: Črna grapa) lies below the settlement and Black Creek (Slovene: Črna) flows through the gorge.[1]

History

In 1880 Črna had a population of 19 people living in three houses.[5] By 1900, there were only 13 people,[2] and by 1961 the population had declined to nine; this fell further to only five in 1965.[1] At the time, the settlement consisted of only three farms, one of which had been abandoned.[1] Črna was annexed by Dole in 1964, ending its existence as an independent settlement.[1][6] There was formerly a mill along Black Creek below the settlement; the remnants of a weir and a footbridge remain at the site.[1]
