There are two mansions in the settlement. Pahta Mansion (Slovene: Graščina Pahta or Pahtejev Grad) was built in 1870 in the hills south of Zgornja Kungota. Lepi Dol Mansion, built in the Pesnica Valley, is an early 18th-century Baroque mansion on the site of an earlier building. It was renovated in a Neoclassical style in the 19th century.[4]
