Name

edit

The name of the settlement was changed from Gradišče to Gradišče pri Trebnjem in 1953.[3]

Cultural heritage

edit

A prehistoric hillfort dated to the late Bronze Age has been identified at the settlement. The name Gradišče itself suggests the existence of a fortified prehistoric settlement, and an archaeological survey in 1989 confirmed and dated the site.[4]

In 1936 a chapel dedicated to Saint Joseph was built in the settlement.[5]
