Castle
Grmače Castle (German: Grünhof)[3] was built in 1646 and stood on the east edge of Zavrstnik. It was owned by Baron Apfaltern of Vienna until the Second World War. The castle was burned by the Partisans during the war.[4] After the war the remaining buildings were used by the Litija Collective Farm (Slovene: KZ Litija).[5]
