Mass grave

Cultural heritage
In the forest southwest of Logarji, south of the road to Zgonče, there is also a memorial to Angela Škulj (1919–1942) from Brankovo, who was killed by Village Guard forces.[4][5] The monument consists of a rough stone pyramid with a plaque affixed to it. The memorial is surrounded by a metal fence and was unveiled in 1980.[6]
