Castle and manor edit
Črnelo Castle (German: Rottenbüchel)[2] used to stand on Hribar Hill (Slovene: Hribarjev hrib) above Turnše. The castle was first mentioned in written sources in 1297 but at the end of the 17th century it was abandoned for a manor below the castle. The castle itself was probably used for building material because no trace of it remains today.[4][5][6]
