Reopened as a heritage site in 2003, the late 17th century homestead in which Peter Danjko (1787-1873) was born has been restored in period style. Danjko occupies a special place in Slovene history as a grammarian and religious writer. He wrote in the dialect of Štajerska using a special alphabet (danjčica) of his own invention. The original open-hearth kitchen (the so-called 'black kitchen') is preserved in the house and there is also a collection of ethnological objects.
