Zgornji Kašelj

Zgornji Kašelj (pronounced [ˈzɡoːɾnji ˈkaːʃəl]; in older sources also Gorenji Kašelj,[2] German: Oberkaschel[2]) is a formerly independent settlement in the eastern part of the capital Ljubljana in central Slovenia.

It lies on a terrace above the left bank of the Ljubljanica River and extends west to Vevče and the source of Bajer Creek.

[1] Zgornji Kašelj was annexed by the City of Ljubljana in 1982, ending its existence as an independent settlement.

[5] The church in Zgornji Kašelj is dedicated to Saint Andrew (Slovene: sveti Andrej).

The church was first mentioned in written sources in 1520, when it was consecrated by Bishop Natalis de Turre.
