Geography

[edit]
The Selca Pasture

The territory of Ribno extends from the village center north of the Sava Bohinjka River to the south. Its elevation ranges from a low of 417 meters (1,368 ft) along the river to a high of 1,265 meters (4,150 ft) at Black Peak (Slovene: Črni vrh) on the Jelovica Plateau. The Selca Pasture (Slovene: Selška planina or Selska planina), also known as the Selca–Kupljenik Pasture (Slovene: Selsko-kupljeniška planina), lies at the southernmost point in the settlement, below the southern slope of Black Peak.

Church

[edit]
Saint James's Church

The parish church in the village is dedicated to Saint James. It was originally a Gothic church with some frescos remaining in the chancel, but it was greatly rebuilt and reconstructed in the late 19th century.[2]
