During the Ten-Day War in 1991, Krvava Peč served as a collection center for deserters from the Yugoslav Army, including soldiers, NCOs, and officers. The center was overseen by the 63rd Independent Company. Access to the area was controlled by a Slovenian roadblock at Purkače. The building that was used as the headquarters for the collection center is now a lodge operated by the Union of Veterans for the War for Slovenia (ZVVS).
