Vodice, Vodice
Vodice (; ''Leksikon občin kraljestev in dežel zastopanih v državnem zboru,'' vol. 6: ''Kranjsko''. 1906. Vienna: C. Kr. Dvorna in Državna Tiskarna, pp. 32–33.) is a settlement in the Municipality of Vodice in the Upper Carniola region of Slovenia, just north of Ljubljana. In addition to the main population center of Vodice, the settlement includes the hamlets of Gornji Konec, Na Vasi (), Lokarje, Jegriše (or ''Jegrše''), Mesto, Zaprice (), and Pusence. Name Vodice was first attested 1118 with reference to its church as ''in plebe sancte Margarete virginis'', and as ''Wodiz'' in 1257 (and as ''Woditç'' in 1265). The name is ultimately derived from the Slovene common noun ''vodica'', a diminutive of ''voda'' 'water, creek'. The name may therefore be based on the singular locative form ''*Vodicě'' (literally, 'by the small creek'), or may have originally been plural, referring to springs in the area. In the past the German name was ''Woditz''. Church The parish church ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
