History & geography

History

A 1994 archaeological excavation around the church in the village revealed graves from the later period of Slavic settlement in the area (9th to 19th century).

Geography

The older part of the settlement lies close to the banks of the Sava River. The newer part of the village lies further north, toward the main road. There are open fields towards the east of the village, and it borders on a forest along the banks of the Sava towards the west.
