Few towns in the Kamnik administrative area have a history as closely tied to the medieval commandery of the Knights Hospitaller as Komenda. Its name recalls the commandery, once a holding of the order in Carniola, while the Church of St Peter remains at the settlement’s centre. Komenda lies on the Pšata in the Ljubljana Basin, with the Kamnik–Savinja Alps rising beyond its low, cultivated surroundings. The parish is also associated with Peter Pavel Glavar, an 18th-century priest and reformer who promoted beekeeping and rural education.
