About

Račice (pronounced [ˈɾaːtʃitsɛ]; Italian: Racizze) is a village southeast of Podgrad in the Municipality of Ilirska Bistrica in the Inner Carniola region of Slovenia, near the border with Croatia.

Račice is the site of an unmarked grave dating from the end of the Second World War. The Gradac Grave ( Slovene : Grob Gradac ), located northwest of the village, contains the remains of a German soldier from the 97th Corps that fell at the beginning of May 1945.

The local church is dedicated to Saint Roch and belongs to the Parish of Podgrad.
