Famous Slovene writer, publicist, political and cultural worker France Bevk (1890–1970) was born at the Volar homestead in the village of Zakojca. He spent his childhood and early youth living on a slope of the Kojca mountain, above the Baška Valley.

The France Bevk homestead was opened to visitors in 1990 on the 100th anniversary of the writer's birth. It was established by the Idrija Municipal Museum which also houses France Bevk's Memorial Room, donated by his wife and transferred from Ljubljana to Idrija in 1971. His homestead in Zakojca is nevertheless managed by the Cerkno Museum.

Razvezani jezik - The Unleashed Tongue


Launched in December 2004 by the Domestic Research Society, Razvezani jezik [The Unleashed Tongue] is the first user-generated online dictionary of spoken Slovenian language. It has remained open to contributions for 15 years. A web project created with Wiki technology, it permitted easy editing of articles in the dictionary and allowed every visitor to add new entries freely. It quickly gained popularity and was labelled "the most entertaining Slovenian dictionary" by the media. The anonymous users contributed slang, neologisms and similar words and phrases from all Slovene regions and belonged to different generations and subcultures.
