CASTELLI DELLA SLOVACCHIA

Indubbiamente i castelli della Slovacchia sono l’attrattiva principale per il visitatore.

Numerosi sono i castelli in perfetto stato di conservazione, ma altrettante sono le rovine di manieri medioevali e gotici che testimoniano una lunga storia lasciata dai popoli che in passato hanno popolato le terre della Slovacchia.

Gli storici si stanno ancora chiedendo quando le antiche popolazioni abbiano gettato le fondamenta degli imponenti manieri. Certo è che sull’altura del castello di Bratislava, la capitale della Slovacchia, i primi insediamenti umani risalgono a quattromila anni fa.

In Slovacchia circa 200 paesi e città hanno sul proprio territorio delle fortezze medievali e dei castelli che erano posti nei luoghi strategici a difesa delle vie commerciali. La Slovacchia è stata attraversata dalla storia, pertanto Vi potete trovare tutti gli stili architettonici.

Nei pressi di Bratislava sono conservati i resti di una fortificazione romana dell’età imperiale e molte chiese in stile gotico. Gioiello di portata europea è il Duomo gotico di Santa Elisabetta a Košice.

Vi mostriamo alcuni siti storici tra i più importanti:

CASTLE L’UPCA

CASTLE LUPCA
The Castle had originated before 1250 and originally served as a hunting seat for a royal family. The ownership of the Castle changed to individuals later on. They tried to adapt the Castle according to their own wishes, and we can still see the evidence of these various re-buildings. During reconstruction works in the 17th century the country yard was supplemented with arcades and the rooms with vaulted ceilings. At that time the Castle was the seat of the Lupca nobility who possessed a lot of villages situated to the east of Banska Bystrica. After a fire in 1860 the Castle was adapted for use as an orphanage and under the previous regime it was the place where nuns were isolated. As the Castle was in continuous use it has been preserved considerably.
The nature of the Low Tatra and the mountains of Slovenske Rudohorie, offers opportunities for walks and sport activities.
