Mlino (pronounced [ˈmliːnɔ], formerly Bled–Mlino;[2] German: Seebach[3][4][5][6]) is a former settlement in the Municipality of Bled in northwestern Slovenia. It is now part of the town of Bled.[7] The area is part of the traditional region of Upper Carniola and is now included with the rest of the municipality in the Upper Carniola Statistical Region.
Geography
Mlino lies in the southern part of Bled, above the southern shore of Lake Bled.[1][7] It is located southwest of the former village of Želeče. Kozarca Hill (elevation: 558 meters (1,831 ft)) rises to the south,[1] and Jezernica Creek flows through the settlement.[7] Before the village became part of the town of Bled, Bled Island and its church belonged to Mlino.[1] The name Mlino is derived from the common noun mlin, referring to economic activity in the settlement.[8]
