Obrije (pronounced [ɔˈbɾiːjɛ]; in older sources also Obrje[2][3]) is a formerly independent settlement in the northeast part of the capital Ljubljana in central Slovenia.[1] It was part of the traditional region of Upper Carniola and is now included with the rest of the municipality in the Central Slovenia Statistical Region.[4]
Geography
Obrije lies along the road from Hrastje to Stožice. It is a linear village on a terrace above the Sava River. Most of the houses stand on the edge of the terrace, but some also stand on a lower terrace further north, towards the river. Fields are located to the southeast.[1]
Name
Obrije was attested in written sources in 1490 as Albriach. The medieval transcriptions indicate that the name is not etymologically related to that of Abriach (Slovene: Obrije), a village in Austria's Völkermarkt District. The name was originally *Olbr′ane, a plural demonym, probably derived from the pre-Romance root *alber-. Liquid metathesis of this root also produced the Slovene dialect word laberje 'field debris, field detritus', indicating that the name Obrije referred to local geological conditions.[5]
History
Obrije was annexed by the City of Ljubljana in 1982, ending its existence as an independent settlement.[6]
Sizing plant
The Gradis construction company started operating a gravel pit in Obrije in 1952.[7] A sizing plant was later built at the site and was used for construction of the Nove Jarše housing development and other needs; it was abandoned in the 1990s.[8] The plant was damaged in a fire on 1 November 2008.[9]
