TRIP Description
Stará Ľubovňa Castle
The Castle was built at the turn of 13th and 14th centuries. During the Swedish Deluge, the Polish coronation jewels were stored there. Today, the castle chapel houses their replicas - the crown, the apple, the emblem and the coronation mantle. After the fire in 1553, the Castle had been rebuilt in the Renaissance style, and later - in the Baroque one.
Folk Museum - Open-Air Ethographic Exhibition
Next to the Castle, there is the Museum of Folk Architecture. It forms an independent exhibition which includes 25 buildings transferred there from nearby places. There, we can find peasant houses showing the traditional culture of this region, farm buildings, a watermill and a blacksmith’s workshop. The most valuable exhibit is a wooden Greek Catholic church from 1833.
TRAIL OF TREE CROWNS - BACHLEDOVA VALLEY
The Trail is located on the ridge of Spiš Magura Mountain. The entire Trail, with a total length of 1 234 meters, is spiralled above the crowns of trees. The maximum height of the Trail is 24 m and ends with a 32-metre high viewing tower. From the tower, there is an impressive view of the Belian Tatras, Zamagurie Region, Pieniny Mountains with the Three Crowns Mountain and the Niedzica Castle.
