The name comes from an early saint and reflects the religious roots of the area. People here maintain connection to local traditions through everyday community life and shared customs.
The village is reached by local roads and sits in a rural agricultural area without major transit connections. Visitors should have a car since public transportation is limited and nearby towns are several kilometers away.
