The local church, from which the settlement gets its name, is dedicated to Saint Michael and belongs to the Parish of Laško. It is a pilgrimage church with a double belfry built between 1637 and 1641. Four of an original seven mid-17th century chapel-shrines representing the Stations of the Cross still survive along the road leading up the hill to the church.[3]
