Attractions
The Strmol Castle with its park and the Church of the Assumption of Mary in Cerklje are worth seeing . A church is said to have stood there as early as the 9th century. At the beginning of the 13th century there were two smaller churches next to it. One was destroyed in an earthquake in 1511 and the other was demolished afterwards. The mountain world is a varied landscape, hiking area in summer, and the Krvavec ski area in winter is an important economic factor .
