The local church, built on the southern outskirts of the village, is dedicated to Saint Oswald (Slovene: sveti Ožbolt) and belongs to the Parish of Dragatuš. It was first mentioned in written documents dating to 1526, but owes its current Baroque look to a major remodelling in the 18th century. The main altar dates to 1876.[4]
