Zapeć is a village in Croatia, under the Vrbovsko township, in Primorje-Gorski Kotar County.

Etymology

The village is named after a cave, "Peć", which has in turn taken on the name of the village as "Zapeć".[3]: 6 

Linguistics

The local dialect is closely related to that of Blaževci, Zaumol, Plemenitaš, and Štefanci, belonging to the West Goranski dialect [hr].[4]

History

Ecclesiastically, Zapeć has belonged to the parish of Plemenitaš since its foundation in 1805, before which it was under Lukovdol, although its parish registers were in Stari Trg ob Kolpi until the construction of the present church in Plemenitaš in 1790.[5]: 97 

Zapeć has always been well-connected with the Slovene side of the river as well, and of all the villages on the Croatian side of the Predgrad-Radenci valley it saw the most marriages across the river.[5]: 99  In 1981/1982, Zapeć received its first telephone line from the Slovene side, through Dol.[5]: 111 

The sawmill of Dušan Vilhar was in function until 1968 and had customers on both sides of the river, after which business shifted to the sawmill in Blaževci.[5]: 94, 110
