Ruše Latin school

The six-grade Latin school was founded in 1645 on the initiative of the local inhabitant, vicar Jurij Kozina. It was called the Ruše High school. The school was very precious for the town at that time since during the time of its operation, until 1758, Ruse became the cultural and educational center for many villages. It was attended by descendants of well-known noble families (Attems, Herberstein, Tattenbach, Thurn, etc.). 6,600 students attended the school in 113 years.

Permanent benchmark

Along the railway line Ruše-Fala, at the milestone 15.3, in the stable gneiss wall, there is a permanent benchmark with a Latin inscription. Of all the benchmarks in the former Austria-Hungary, only this one was preserved in the territory of Slovenia. It is still used today to determine land movements over a longer period of time (over 100 years) and to determine precise altitudes. The permanent benchmark in the Smolnik settlement in the Municipality of Ruše is the starting point of the height surveying network in the Republic of Slovenia. Due to its location right next to the railway line, the Smolnik benchmark is probably less known and is poorly promoted as a tourist facility, despite its huge historical value.
