The symbolic cemetery (1525 m above the sea) is situated close to the Popradské pleso (Popradské Mountain-lake) bellow western slopes of Ostrva. It was built as a memorial devoted to people who worked and tragically died in the High Tatras, exceptionally even to some famous people. Tourists visit this place very often.
Currently there are over 160 memorial-boards and 50 hand-carved wooden crosses. Originally all the memorial-boards were scattered all around the High Tatras, more or less at the places of tragedies. Otakar Štáfl (1884 – 1945), an academic artist, was the author of the idea to found a symbolic cemetery. At the same time he, his wife and some friends were the ones who realised it in 1936. It was finished in 1940 and open to public with the following motto: ”As a remembrance to the death and a warning to the alive”.
Opened in 1991, the Museum of Liptov Village in Pribylina is the youngest open air museum in Slovakia. Its origin is connected with the construction of the Liptovsky Mara Dam. Precious real estate which would have otherwise been flooded was relocated or reconstructed to create the museum.
Čičmany is a village and municipality in Žilina District in the Žilina Region of northern Slovakia. It is known as the first folk architecture reserve in the world (founded in 1977).
The first preserved reference to the village dates from 1272. After a great fire in 1921, the village was restored to its original look with generous contributions by the state. Until the mid-20th century, the village was a center of sheep raising.
