Jastroblje (pronounced [ˈjaːstɾɔbljɛ], in older sources Jastroble[1]) is a former settlement in the Municipality of Kamnik in central Slovenia. It is now part of the village of Špitalič.[2] The area is part of the traditional region of Upper Carniola. The municipality is now included in the Central Slovenia Statistical Region.

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]
