HISTORY

The Farm Repečnik is one of the oldest farms in Gorje village. The written material found, indicates that the farm was already here in the beginning of the 18th century. From its very beginning, it was a farm with no feudal taxpaying obligation and was considered a free farm. Its first owners were supposedly of a nobel origin. A short folk story “Rpečnekova vučca” refers to the farm in the beginning of the 19th century. Throughout the history, the farm was known as the biggest one around, and after a short period of its decline, Mirko and Nataša Rimahazi have done everything to bring it back to life. Nowdays Repečnik Farm is one of the biggest modern farms in the area. The residental house was built in year 1894 and has some traditional features, such as the front gate stone, the main door made from larch wood and the green tuff window frames.
