History Before the Second World War, Bakrc had a population of 40 people living in eight houses. During the war, a group of 22 Partisans attacked the village in early 1943 but were routed by anti-communist militia."Kako so se komunisti predstavili Suhi krajini." 1943. Domoljub 56(7) (17 February): 3. The village was burned on 16 March 1943. According to some sources, the Partisan Tone Tomšič Brigade burned the village."Tomšičevi v Suhi krajini." 1961. Dolenjski list 12(12) (23 March): 4. "Mi smo zažgali Ambrus in Bakerc, ker smo bili v vaseh napadeni skoraj iz vsake hiše, ki so bile polne orožja." (We burned Ambrus and Bakrc because in these villages we were attacked from almost every house, filled with weapons.) Other sources state that Italian forces burned the village.
