==Mass grave== Bovše is the site of a mass grave from the period immediately after the Second World War. The Tudrež Mass Grave () is located on the edge of the woods south of Tudrež Hill, next to Grilc Creek () by the Knafelc Meadow (). It contains the remains of 13 male and female ethnic German civilians from Vojnik that were murdered in June 1945. The grave site was confirmed through probing in July 2010.
