The Sv. Janez Krstnik Valley with its mighty Žiče Carthusian Monastery offers a mysterious serenity that allows visitors a retreat from civilization.

The Žiče Carthusian Monastery from 1165 is a unique monument to the history of the life of monks. The monastery of brothers closed in the 18th century, but the monks’ houses, dining room, kitchen, and church remained.
