==Mass graves== Trpčane is the site of a mass grave and an unmarked grave from the end of the Second World War. They both contain the remains of German soldiers from the 97th Corps that were killed at the beginning of May 1945. The Riverbank Mass Grave (), also known as the Frkovec Mass Grave (), lies on the bank of the Reka River east of the settlement, about north of a bridge. It contains the remains of either four or 20 soldiers. The Linden Grave () lies from the house at Trpčane no. 22 and contains the remains of one soldier.
