history

Bobojach was first mentioned in 1299 as Pobeyach in the land register of the Counts of Gorizia. At that time it consisted of six goods, which comprised a total of five hubs. In 1545 there had already been a number of yard divisions in the Rotte am Pabeyach , so that now there were already several goods the size of quarter hubs.

Bobojach consisted of 17 houses in 1869, in which 102 people lived, whereby the spelling of the faction at that time was Woiwojach . The population hardly changed in the following 150 years. In 1957 113 people lived in Bobojach, in 1973 there were 128. After that, the number of inhabitants fell again to 103 in 2001.

Buildings

The Josefskapelle lies in the middle of the closely built-up town center of Bobojach and was built in 1760 instead of the "Knappenhäusl", which burned down in 1743. The consecration took place in 1762, and the tower was added in 1803. The chapel was renovated in 1969 and 1970. The Trinity Chapel, also known as the Stoana Chapel, is located at the Steinerhof and was probably built in the 17th century in place of an earlier chapel.
