Češenik Manor
edit
Češenik Manor (Slovene: dvorec Češenik or graščina Češenik; German: Scherenbüchel) stands at the north end of the settlement. It was built after 1581, when the previous structure burned down after a lightning strike.[4] The manor was burned by the Partisans on March 16, 1944.[4][5] The building was repaired after the war and converted into apartments.[4]
