Together with neighboring Mala Ligojna (literally 'Little Ligojna'), Velika Ligojna (literally, 'Big Ligojna') was attested in written sources in 1309 as "Luckossel" (and as "Lucozel" in 1317, "Lvkozel" in 1318, and "Vunderludigoni" in 1526). The medieval transcriptions indicate that the name was "Luko(va) sela" (literally, 'Luka's village') in the 14th century, probably originally based on the name "*Ľudigojь" and then confused in the transcriptions with the similar name "Luka". If so, today 's name is a result of the sound change "ľu-" > "li-" and modern vowel reduction, and means 'Ljudigoj's village'. Church. The local church in Velika Ligojna is dedicated to Saint George and belongs to the Parish of Vrhnika. The church was first mentioned in written sources in 1526 and was remodeled in the Baroque style in the 18th century. It was surrounded by a defensive wall during the Ottoman wars in Europe.
