Brezovica pri Borovnici

Brezovica pri Borovnici (pronounced [ˈbɾéːzɔʋitsa pɾi bɔɾɔwˈnìːtsi]; German: Bresowitz[2]) is a settlement south of Borovnica in the Inner Carniola region of Slovenia.

[4] In 1942, the regional committee of the Communist Party of Slovenia took up positions in a bunker along Šumnik Creek north of Brezovica pri Borovnici.

The Krim Cave Mass Grave (Slovene: Grobišče Krimska jama) lies in the woods south of the settlement.

It contains the remains of an unknown number of Slovene civilians from neighboring villages murdered by a battalion of the Partisan Krim Detachment in 1942.

[12] It was investigated by Home Guard forces on 9 September 1942, and again with a journalist and a photographer on 23 March 1945, confirming the presence of human remains in the cave.
