Zaklanec (pronounced [zaˈklaːnəts]; German: Saklanz[2]) is a village east of Horjul in the Inner Carniola region of Slovenia.
History
The houses in the village are relatively new buildings because the entire village burnt down in a fire in 1920 and was also bombed by the Germans during the Second World War after the capitulation of Italy in 1943.[3] On November 20, 1942, the Partisans abducted and killed seven people from Zaklanec in the Broad Creek Gorge (Slovene: Široki potok) in nearby Dobrova.[4][5]
