Name

The name of the settlement was changed from Kočno to Kočno pri Polskavi in 1953.

Gromberk Castle

The ruins of Gromberk Castle (German: Grünberg) lie to the northwest of the settlement. It originated in the 10th century and was part of the estate of the Counts of Celje. It fell into disrepair after a peasant revolt in the late 17th century and relatively few remains are still visible today.
