History

A school was established in Daljna Vas in 1926. Lavrica was formerly a hamlet of Daljna Vas, consisting of only a few houses near the train station. This relationship was reversed in 1961, when the name Lavrica was applied to a merged settlement consisting of Daljna Vas and parts of Babna Gorica, Srednja Vas, Škofljica, and Ljubljana.
