Gora pri Pečah


Gora pri Pečah is a settlement in the Municipality of Moravče in central Slovenia. Traditionally the area was part of Upper Carniola. It is now included with the rest of the municipality in the Central Slovenia Statistical Region.

Name

The name of the settlement was changed from Gora Sv. Florjana to Gora pri Pečah in 1955. The name was changed on the basis of the 1948 Law on Names of Settlements and Designations of Squares, Streets, and Buildings as part of efforts by Slovenia's postwar communist government to remove religious elements from toponyms.

Church

The local church is dedicated to Saint Florian and belongs to the Parish of Vače. It dates to the early 16th century but was extensively rebuilt in the late 17th century.
