Ponad današnjeg naselja Ledenice (Ledenice Polje), na 376 m nadmorske visine, stoje razvaline starog grada Ledenice – Gradine, važne strateške točke u okršajima koji su se vodili u istočnom dijelu Vinodola.

Naime, Osmanlijske provale sezale su do Ledenica 1522. i 1539. godine, dok Frankopani potpuno nisu izgubili vlast 1572. Tada Ledenice potpadaju pod Senjski kapetanat.

U Ledenicama se poslije madridskog mira 1617. godine odigrao i dio uskočke epopeje i tragedije, koju je hrvatski književnik August Šenoa opisao u romanu “Čuvaj se senjske ruke”. Predaja govori da je prikupljajući građu za svoj roman o uskocima, te upoznavajući staru Gradinu u pjesniku nikla misao o pjesmi “Kugina kuća”.

Danas su vidljivi ostaci tog nekadašnjeg povijesnog grada, sa ostacima četvrtaste kule i crkve svetog Stjepana.

The location provides evidence of Roman empire existence with several findings such as Roman coins and architecture style. It was a learning experience for me and my friends.
