Jerinov Grič (pronounced [jɛˈɾiːnɔu̯ ˈɡɾiːtʃ]) is a small settlement in the hills southwest of Vrhnika in the Inner Carniola region of Slovenia.[2]
Name
[edit]
The name Jerinov Grič literally means 'Jerina's hill'. Jerina is a relatively common surname in Slovenia, and it is most frequently found in central Slovenia.[3]
History
[edit]The remnants of a Roman wall are located in Jerinov Grič. The name of the adjacent village of Prezid (literally, 'before the wall') reflects this.[4]
Jerinov Grič was administratively separated from Zaplana in 2002 and made an independent settlement. Further adjustments were made to the boundaries of the settlement in 2016.[5]
