History

Tanči Vrh was a Gottschee German village. Before the Second World War it had two houses. All of the houses in the settlement were burned by Italian troops in the summer of 1942 during the Rog Offensive and it was never rebuilt. During the Second World War a reception station was located here for the Partisan hospital at Mount Kumrovo.
