Stari Dvor (pronounced [ˈstaːɾi ˈdʋɔɾ]; German: Stariduor[2] or Staridwor[3]) is a former settlement in the Municipality of Škofja Loka in the Upper Carniola region of Slovenia.
[4] The name refers to a manor belonging to the Dominion of Loka that stood in the area in the 11th century.
[3] The population of the village grew rapidly in the late 19th century, with a 60% increase from 1869 to 1880, due to the railroad station established in 1870.
By 1961, the population of Stari Dvor was nearly 10 times greater than it had been a century earlier because of the industries attracted by the railroad.
[1] Stari Dvor was annexed by the town of Škofja Loka in 1970, ending its existence as a separate settlement.
