Ribnica, Pivka

Ribnica (pronounced [ˈɾiːbnitsa]) is a small settlement on the right bank of the Reka River in the Municipality of Pivka in the Inner Carniola region of Slovenia.

[5] In 1994, territory from Nadanje Selo, Mala Pristava, Nova Sušica, and Stara Sušica was combined to create Ribnica as a separate settlement.

[1] Ribnica is the site of two mass graves from the end of World War II.

The Rebri Mass Grave (Slovene: Grobišče Rebri) lies at the end of a meadow 50 meters (160 ft) east of the houses at the main crossroads in the settlement, at the edge of the woods.

[6] The Loka Mass Grave contained the bodies of 31 soldiers killed on May 4, 1945, which were exhumed between September 6 and 13, 2017.
