The Roman necropolis in the now Slovenian town of Sempeter, which was once called St. Peter am Draufeld in the old Lower Styria, is today one of the most interesting archaeological sites of ancient grave architecture in Central Europe. Here it was not man who destroyed this unique cemetery of important Roman settlers. A huge flood of the Savinja River in the 3rd century AD must have torn even the largest tombs from their foundations and overturned them, so that the families of these dead probably no longer had the strength or time to restore everything to its previous state in honor of the deceased. They had enough to do with saving and restoring their villas and estates. The graves near the rising river collapsed because the foundations had been washed away, fell into the Savinja and were soon covered with sediment, disappeared and were only discovered again by chance almost two thousand years later during excavation work. The monuments further away from the river also collapsed, but were not covered by the river. Their marble components were later reused as welcome building material or were burned to make mortar lime and thus disappeared. It was not until the 20th century that the buried grave monuments saw the light of day again. In 1952, the first debris was discovered by chance and archaeology was called in, which was already exemplary in Slovenia at that time. These excavations lasted until 1956. Even then, there were plans for permanent preservation and public presentation on site. The reconstruction plans were ready in 1959. The findings so far have shown that at least this part of the cemetery must have been created in the 1st to 2nd centuries AD.

Škalsko Lake is the first of three lakes that began to form in the Šalek Valley following lignite mining activity. The body of water, formed before the Second World War, is the result of the less intense period of the coal industry in the valley. With its 16 hectares it is in fact the smallest of the three. The lake is bordered throughout its perimeter by a cycle/pedestrian path connected to the nearby Lake Velenj, which is much better known and popular. Today sport fishing is practiced in Lake Škalsko. Carp, zander and pike predominate in the lake. The lake is also known for large catfish exceeding 2 meters in length.
