Gorenje (pronounced [ɡɔˈɾeːnjɛ], German: Goreine [2]) is a former village in central Slovenia in the Municipality of Lukovica. It is now part of the village of Spodnje Koseze. [3] It is part of the traditional region of Upper Carniola and is now included in the Central Slovenia Statistical Region.
Gorenje stands on a terrace above the road from Lukovica pri Domžalah to Moravče. [1]
The name Gorenje is shared by several settlements in Slovenia. It arose through ellipsis of Gorenje selo (literally, 'upper village'), denoting the elevation of the place in relation to a neighboring settlement. [4] Gorenje stands about 29 meters (95 ft) higher than neighboring Spodnje Koseze.
Gorenje had a population of 53 (in nine houses) in 1900 [5] and 47 (in seven houses) in 1931. [1]
During the Second World War, the Partisans stored food and equipment nearby to supply a recruitment center. In August 1943, the Partisans built a bunker in Gorenje to treat wounded soldiers, and the Partisans' economic committee for the Lukovica region was based in Gorenje. [3]
Gorenje was annexed by Spodnje Koseze in 1955, ending its existence as a separate settlement. [6] [7]
The local church in Gorenje, which also serves Spodnje Koseze, is dedicated to Saint Lawrence. It is a Baroque structure with a cupola vault, and the main altar dates from the 19th century. The paintings in the church were created by Gašpar Luka Goetzl (1782–1857) around 1843. [3]
