Geography

[edit ]

Jastroblje is a scattered village about 900 meters (3,000 ft) west of the center of Špitalič.^[3] Motnišnica Creek flows north of the settlement, and the road to the Lipovec Pasture above Špitalič turns off of the main road at Jastroblje.

Name

[edit ]

Jastroblje was attested as Gasterdorff in 1488.^[4] The name Jastroblje is believed to derive from the common noun jastreb 'goshawk; vulture', referring to local fauna. It is related to similar toponyms such as Jastrebci and Jastrebnik .^[5]

History

[edit ]

Jastroblje was annexed by Špitalič in 1953, ending its existence as an independent settlement.^[6]^[7]
