Mass graves
Stari Trg is the site of two known mass graves from the period immediately after the Second World War. Both are located north of the settlement, on the western outskirts of Slovenj Gradec, and contain the remains of Croatians killed between May 10 and 15, 1945 while traveling toward the Austrian border. The Gmajna Tree Nursery Mass Grave ({{langx|sl|Grobišče v drevesnici na Gmajni}}) is located in a meadow between a plantation of trees to the south and a ditch to the north, near an electric pole. It contains the remains of three victims.{{cite web |last1=Ferenc |first1=Mitja |title=Grobišče v drevesnici na Gmajni |url=https://www.geopedia.world/#T12_L362_F2534:224_x1676916.3725777995_y5863242.334089029_s15_b2345 |website=Geopedia |publisher=Služba za vojna grobišča, Ministrstvo za delo, družino in socialne zadeve |accessdate=October 25, 2023 |location=Ljubljana |language=sl |date=December 2009}} The Nova Oprema Woods Mass Grave ({{lang|sl|Grobišče v gozdu za Novo opremo}}) is located on a wooded slope behind the Nova O upholstered furniture factory (formerly known as Nova Oprema).
