An interesting place which forms a small wing of what is now mental hospital but in former times was a convent and female prison. The Germans used it as a prison, transit station and interrogation facility. Hostages were also held and executed there. It has a brutal record but is nevertheless part of Slovenia's history. The surrounding fields are full of blood.
