Velika Ligojna

Velika Ligojna (pronounced [ˈʋeːlika liˈɡoːi̯na]; German: Großligoina[2]) is a village north of Vrhnika in the Inner Carniola region of Slovenia.

The medieval transcriptions indicate that the name was Luko(va) sela (literally, 'Luka's village') in the 14th century, probably originally based on the name *Ľudigojь and then confused in the transcriptions with the similar name Luka.

If so, today's name is a result of the sound change ľu- > li- and modern vowel reduction, and means 'Ljudigoj's village'.

[5] The local church in Velika Ligojna is dedicated to Saint George and belongs to the Parish of Vrhnika.

[6] The church was first mentioned in written sources in 1526 and was remodeled in the Baroque style in the 18th century.
