History On the right bank of the Sava River, north of the main settlement in a small field area known as Zasavje, a late medieval village called Zasavje () was abandoned and never resettled after it was destroyed by severe flooding on January 25, 1781. The area is now considered an archaeological site, although it has not been excavated.
