Bločice  Bločice (, in older sources also "Obločice", ) is a village east of Grahovo in the Municipality of Cerknica in the Inner Carniola region of Slovenia. Bločice was attested in written sources in 1397 as "Oblaczicz". It is a diminutive of the regional name "*Obloke" (which developed into "Bloke"), which is probably derived from the prepositional phrase "*ob(ь) lǫky" or "*ob(ь) lǫkaxъ" 'next to the flood-meadow(s)'. Originally the name therefore means 'little Bloke' (cf. also "Male Bloke", literally 'little Bloke', and "Velike Bloke", literally 'big Bloke'). In the past it was known as "Obločice" in Slovene and "Obloschitz" in German. The local church in the settlement is dedicated to Saints Primus and Felician and belongs to the Parish of Grahovo. It was first mentioned in written documents dating to 1397 and its interior preserves some mid- to late-15th century frescos. The main altar dates to 1672.
