There are two churches in the settlement. The church south of the settlement, close to the banks of the Drava River, is dedicated to Mary Magdalene and was dedicated in 1384. It belongs to the Parish of Dravograd. The church in the north of the settlement, close to the Austrian border, is dedicated to Saint Urban.
