There are two churches in the settlement. The church in the southern part of the settlement is dedicated to Saint Leonard and is a Gothic building dating to the 15th century with a 17th-century belfry. The church further up Mount Boč is dedicated to Saint Nicholas and originally dates to the 16th century with some rebuilding in the mid-17th century. Both belong to the Parish of Kostrivnica.[3]
