	Cultural Heritage \| Žumberak - Samobor Mountains Nature Park
		The name “Zumberak” itself it thought to be connected to the name of the Sichelberg fortress (Zumberak Old Town), which is then linked to the shape of the Zumberak mountains, which are shaped like a sickle (in German, die sichel = sickle, der Berg = hill).
		Thus the name Zumberak could have got its name either by changing the name Schönberg into a slavic version “Zemberk”, today “Zumberak” or from the word Sichelberg which would be pronounced Zumberk, which is also close to its name, as it is today.
		Zumberak Uskok agree to serve as defence forces in the area, and Zumberak becomes a part “Vojna Krajina” in 1578.

		All during the summer the movement of individuals through Zumberak was noticed once again, and one police patrol even had a skirmish with two of them, after the two pulled out their revolvers when the policemen asked them for identification papers.
		The lay of the land in Zumberak, with its forests and hills is very suitable for hiding of large groups of outlaws and Partizans, and besides that its position along Italian border, which is not protected at all, serves especially well for outlaw Chetnik actions, and even large groups from Slovenia can move without interruption.
		It seems that their main reason for coming here is due to the position of Zumberak, and this summer large groups and now smaller groups of Slovenian Partizans began arriving in the area, remaining here for several months (3 months lately).

	Samobor to the Zumberak : Introduction \| Frommers.com
		You'll find that contemporary Samobor looks like an 18th-century postcard with its flower-bedecked pastel buildings and copper-domed church, but during medieval times, the town was a hub for trades- and craftsmen who made a living with their hands.
		By contrast, the Zumberak is a vast area of forests, hills, rustic villages with almost no visible signs of tourism activity, and vestiges of the Greek Orthodox culture that once thrived there.
		The northern part of the Zumberak is more mountainous than the southern part, where the landscape gives way to hillside vineyards in the Plesivica wine region.
