On a hill north of the settlement above the Dravinja are the ruins of a 12th-century castle known as Zbelovo Castle. It was first mentioned in written documents dating to the 13th century and was in ruins by the late 17th century.[3]

A Gothic pilgrimage church of the Mother of God stands at Mount Ljubično (Slovene: Ljubična gora). It belongs to the Parish of Zreče and dates to the late 15th century, with a bell tower built in 1627. The interior furnishings are from the 18th century.[4]
