Description of mountain:
Turn is a peak above Štore - Šentjanž nad Štorami. Slightly below the summit, at the site of the former Prežin Castle, the Church of St. John the Baptist was built in 1525. The belfry is separate from the church and stands at the very summit, from which the peak likely gets its name Turn. According to some sources, the former castle tower stood at the site of the current belfry. Only a few modest remains of the castle survive. The settlement in the valley along the Voglajna, Prožinska vas, is said to have gotten its name from the former castle.
