Name


The name Šentrupert means 'Saint Rupert', referring to the local parish church. After the Second World War, there was an initiative by the new communist government to remove religious elements from toponyms (cf. Brecljevo, Podbočje, Podnanos, etc.).[4][5] A proposal was made for Šentrupert to be renamed Dolenjski paradiž (literally, 'Lower Carniola paradise'), but it was not carried through.[6]

Hayrack museum


Starting in 2011, the Municipality of Šentrupert has built the first ever open-air museum of hayracks in the southern part of the village.[8] The museum started operating in June 2013. The collection, named "The Land of Hayracks" (Slovene: Dežela kozolcev), covers 2.5 hectares (6.2 acres) and includes 18 drying devices, among them 17 hayracks, with the oldest preserved from 1795, and presents all types of hayrack. The main organiser has been Rupert Gole, the Mayor of Šentrupert.[8] The museum, which also serves as a place of cultural events, has been open since June 2013.[9]
