Vimolj, Semič

Vimolj (pronounced [ˈʋiːmɔl], also spelled Vimol; German: Wiederzug[1] or Widerzug[2]) is a remote abandoned settlement in the Municipality of Semič in southern Slovenia.

The spelling Vimolj is a hypercorrection of older Vimol, from the Slavic common noun *vymolъ 'promontory, elevated land between two valleys'.

In 1965 the Smuk Hunting Club of Semič built a hunter's lodge at the site.

[4][6] The ruins of Saint Anne's Church stand on the north side of the former village, along the forest road to the hunter's lodge.

The church was burned by Italian troops during the Rog Offensive in the summer of 1942.
