1928 Cerknica — Kepanje
21. 06. 2012
Fotografija neznanega avtorja je posneta pozimi okrog leta 1929 in prikazuje zimsko veselje na snegu. Glede na oblačila moškega, ki stoji na desni strani slike in obleki otrok ter dejstvu, da imajo osebe na fotografiji čas za kepanje, predpostavljam, da je bila tega dne nedelja.
Prostor okrog cerkve se je imenoval britof. To ime pa je nosil ta prostor zato, ker je bilo okrog cerkve nekdanje cerkniško pokopališče. Po ljudskem izročilu naj bi bili na tem mestu pokopani tudi Napoleonovi vojaki.

Yes, Napoleon soldiers are buried in Cerknica.
Which battle ?
Here, around the hills was a fierce battle between the Austrians and the French, when the French ruled in Carniola. In 1813 the Austrian Emperor Franz started the war with Napoleon I., as he appropriated Carniola, Croatia and the Littoral. The Austrian army was advancing with Dolenjsko across blocks against Cerknica, while the French were withdrawing it and stopped at a hill in Roe Rakek. There were around 5500. On 27 September there really severe struggle in which they were trapped more than 400 French and over 300 dead and wounded.
