Source-derived summary

Brezovica pri Črmošnjicah (pronounced [ˈbɾéːzɔʋitsa pɾi tʃəɾmɔˈʃnjìːtsax, -njíː-]; formerly Brezje; German: Wrezen, Wretzen, Gottschee German: Brezə) is a small settlement in the Municipality of Semič in Slovenia. The area is part of the historical region of Lower Carniola. The municipality is now included in the Southeast Slovenia Statistical Region.

Geography

The settlement stands on a small hill above the road from Črnomelj to Dolenjske Toplice in the Črmošnjice Valley (Slovene: Črmošnjiška dolina) at the tectonic division between the Gorjanci Mountains and Kočevje Rog. There are fields west of the settlement, as well as former pastures undergoing afforestation and sparse birch and fern woods. There are gravel pits on Gaberkofel Hill (717 m). During dry periods, water was hauled to the village from springs north of the village. These springs also join to form Wild Creek (Divji potok), which flows to Srednja Vas. Springs south of the village join to form Blatnik Creek (Blatniški potok), also known as Little River (Rečica). The territory of the village now also includes the former village of Stari Tabor.

Editorial reviewA practical starting point whose main value is the path it opens into stronger specialist and primary sources. The current 174-word lead offers orientation but no explicit four-digit date, so chronology should not be assumed. The selected authority fields contribute no independent date. The account is most persuasive where Brezovica, Črmošnjicah and place can be independently traced.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as place in Lower Carniola, Slovenia. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.

Evidence profile

Vocabulary and entity names are the principal evidence signals here, because they determine the precision of every later search. The source revision retrieved here is dated Oct 27, 2024.

Critical limits

The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
