Zapleš

Zapleš (pronounced [zaˈpleːʃ], German: Saplesch[2]) is a former village in central Slovenia in the Municipality of Lukovica.

Zapleš is a small hillside settlement on the sunny slope of Kamnec Hill (elevation: 862 meters or 2,828 feet).

Zapleš is recorded in older sources in Slovene as Sapleſh[4] and Za Plešjo,[2] and in German as Saplesch[2] and Plesch.

[5] The name may refer to bare, unplowed land between fields or similar terrain, related to names like Pleš, Pleša, and Plešivica,[6] which derive from the common noun pleša 'bare land', especially in a mountain area.

[8] Zapleš was annexed by Hribi in 1953, ending its existence as a separate settlement.
