Mass grave

Reka is the site of a mass grave from the end of the Second World War. The Reka No. 20 Mass Grave ({{langx|sl|Grobišče pri domačiji Reka 20}}) is located southwest of the village center, on a steep slope about {{convert|50|m|sp=us}} southwest of the farm at Reka no. 20. It contains the remains of 14 Croatian civilians that were shot by a Partisan unit in May 1945 and buried in the orchard below the farm.{{cite web |last1=Ferenc |first1=Mitja |title=Grobišče pri domačiji Reka 20 |url=https://www.geopedia.world/#T12_L362_F2534:249_x1700386.0837879493_y5805073.121872399_s15_b2345 |website=Geopedia |publisher=Služba za vojna grobišča, Ministrstvo za delo, družino in socialne zadeve |accessdate=October 27, 2023 |location=Ljubljana |language=sl |date=December 2009}}
