Novi Kot (pronounced [ˈnɔːʋi ˈkoːt]; German: Neuwinkel[2][3]) is a dispersed settlement in the Municipality of Loški Potok in southern Slovenia, right on the border with Croatia.
[5] The Slovenian adjective and demonym for Novi Kot, in addition to the expected novokotarski and Novokotar, are paralleled by the local terms novobinklerski and Novobinkler, derived from the German toponym.
[6] Novi Kot was founded in the 18th century, when settlers arrived in the area from Loški Potok.
Italian troops burned the settlement on 29 July 1942 and imprisoned many of the inhabitants at the Rab concentration camp, where 46 of them died.
A monument commemorating the victims of the Rab concentration camp was unveiled in the settlement in 1966.
