Podplešivica was formerly a hamlet of Plešivica. It became an independent settlement in 1987.[3]
Podplešivica is the site of Kuschlan Manor (Slovene: Kušljanov grad[4]), also known as Kršljan Manor (Kršljanov grad). The manor was built below Vrbič Hill (Vrbičev hrib) in 1453.[5] Because the wet ground of the marsh made it accessible from only one side, the manor was also known as Za blatom (literally, 'behind the mud', also Zaplata[4]) in Slovene,[5] or Moosthal in German.[4] It was first owned by the Mavrič family, later by the Gallen family, and from 1663 to 1826 by the barons of the Kuschlan family. It was considerably damaged by the 1895 Ljubljana earthquake.[5]
