The master's thesis deals with the importance and role of the local history of Kamnik and suggests ways of including the local history of Kamnik in lessons. In the empirical part, we presented a learning path that focuses on local history and getting to know the local environment. The route is set through the town of Kamnik, which is very rich in history. Teaching preparation for work on the learning path and material are also presented. The implementation of the learning path and students' survey responses show that students like independent work and work outside the classroom. We conducted semi-structured interviews with history teachers, which indicate the issues and importance of including local history in lessons. The master's thesis shows that the use of local history at elementary school
contributes to a greater interest in history and helps to develop an individual's identity, his responsibility towards local and national heritage.
