Kvasica

History
Two stone axes have been found near the village, testifying to ancient settlements in the area. During the Second World War, a Romani school operated at the former dairy in Kvasica, attended by children from Kanižarica. It was active for only a few months, until the population was massacred by a Partisan unit at Rožič Vrh in the summer of 1942. The Partisans attacked and destroyed an Italian military convoy south of the village on 22 September 1942. A monument to the attack was unveiled in 1959.
