The parish church just outside the settlement is dedicated to the Prophet Elijah. The parish is known as the Draga Parish, although the actual village of Draga (obsolete Italian: Draga Santa Elia[3] or Draga Sant'Elia[5]) is now on the Italian side of the border. It belongs to the Koper Diocese.[6]
