Breg, Žirovnica

Breg (pronounced [ˈbɾeːk]; German: Rann[2]) is one of ten villages in the Municipality of Žirovnica in the Upper Carniola region of Slovenia.

There are open fields towards the east of the village, and it borders on a forest along the banks of the Sava towards the west.

[3] A 1994 archaeological excavation around the church in the village revealed graves from the later period of Slavic settlement in the area (9th to 19th century).

St. Michael fighting a dragon is depicted on the northern wall and there is a baroque painting of St. Christopher on the southern exterior.

There is evidence of a wall encircling the church, probably built in the 15th century to protect local inhabitants against Turkish raids in the area.
