Gornja Topla Reber (pronounced [ˈɡoːɾnja ˈtɔːpla ˈɾeːbəɾ]; German: Oberwarmberg[1]) is a remote abandoned settlement in the Municipality of Kočevje in southern Slovenia. The area is part of the traditional region of Lower Carniola and is now included in the Southeast Slovenia Statistical Region.[2] Its territory is now part of the village of Topla Reber.[3]

History

Gornja Topla Reber was a village inhabited by Gottschee Germans. In the winter of 1941–1942 one of the first Partisan bases in the Kočevje area was established in the vicinity. The settlement was burned by Italian troops on 14 August 1942 during the Rog Offensive.[3] Together with Dolnja Topla Reber, it was merged into the settlement of Topla Reber in 1955.[4]
