Name

The name of the settlement was changed from Dobrava to Dobrava pri Kostanjevici in 1953.

Gutenhof Manor

Gutenhof Manor is an Early Baroque mansion with a surrounding park in the settlement. It used to belong to the monastery in Kostanjevica. The manor was first mentioned in written sources in 1536. Over the following centuries, it changed hands many times and was frequently renovated. It came under the ownership of Ivan Globočnik, the mayor of Kostanjevica, at the end of the 19th century and thus acquired the local name Globočnik Castle (Slovene: Globočnikov grad). The building was burned by the Partisans in 1942, but the damage was relatively minor and the private owner was able to live there until the end of the Second World War. The last private owner was Pavel Majcen. After this, the property was taken over by the Agrokombinat collective farm, which radically altered the building's structure and also cut down its grove of trees, known as the Castle Woods (Grajski boršč).

Other cultural heritage

There is also a small chapel-shrine in the village. It is dedicated to the Virgin Mary and was built in the early 20th century.
