Stara Fužina (Script error: No such module "IPA".) is a settlement in the Municipality of Bohinj in the Upper Carniola region of Slovenia.

Name

The name Stara Fužina literally means 'old foundry, old forge'. Like other places with similar names (e.g., Fužina, Fužine, and Fusine in Valromana), the name refers to ironworking in the past. The Slovene common noun fužina is borrowed from Friulian or Venetian Italian fusina, cognate with standard Italian fucina 'foundry, forge'.[1]
