Mass graves

Kračali is the site of two known mass graves or unmarked graves associated with the Second World War. The Kračali 1 Grave (Slovene: Grobišče Kračali 1), also known as the Pasture 1 Grave (Grobišče Planina 1), is located north of the road west of the village. It contains the remains of undetermined victims.[4] The Kračali 2 Grave (Grobišče Kračali 2), also known as the Pasture 2 Grave (Grobišče Planina 2), is located south of the first grave. It contained the remains of an unknown person buried under a tree stump and has probably been exhumed.[5]
