History

Koglo was created as a separate settlement in 1996, when its territory was administratively separated from the villages of Radovlja, Sela pri Zburah, and Žaloviče.[3]

Church

The local church is dedicated to Saint Leonard and belongs to the Parish of Šmarjeta. It is a medieval church that was restyled in the Baroque in the 17th century, but retains a number of its original Gothic features.[4]
