Jerinov Grič (pronounced [jɛˈɾiːnɔu̯ ˈɡɾiːtʃ]) is a small settlement in the hills southwest of Vrhnika in the Inner Carniola region of Slovenia.[2]

History

[edit]

The remnants of a Roman wall are located in Jerinov Grič. The name of the adjacent village of Prezid (literally, 'before the wall') reflects this.[3]
