Ľudové múzeum v Brezovici
Ľudové múzeum in Brezovica is a reflection of the rich history of the village of Brezovica in the Sabinov district. The village, situated at the junction of the Levočské vrchy and Bachureň mountains, can boast living elements of folk architecture and traditional crafts to this day. The history of the life and work of the people in the village is presented precisely by a smaller museum housed in a former mansion. Through its interesting exhibition, it will guide you through the past century in the village.
Ľudové múzeum offers a tour of traditional farm tools, period interior furnishings, as well as old photographs. The most valuable one dates back to 1901. A particularly interesting part of the exhibition is the complete process of flax processing, canvas and rug production. An interesting exhibit is a steamer trunk as evidence of the emigration wave that took place at the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century. The intention of the entire exhibition is to show today's modern people traditional farm life, customs, and traditions of the people in this village
An interesting fact is that the museum in Brezovica was established on the initiative of local activists. They managed to acquire the management of the former mansion, in which the exhibition currently resides. Period items and exhibits were donated to the museum by the villagers directly from their homes. The tour of the exhibition and the photo mini-gallery is free of charge. If you are interested in a journey into the history of this village, we recommend arranging a date in advance by phone or email.
Ľudové múzeum is proof of the respect of its founders and local residents for the life and heritage of their ancestors. You can combine the tour of the exhibition in winter with family skiing at the popular Dubovica – Žliabky resort, and in the summer season with refreshment, relaxation, and water fun at Aquapark Lipany. A wonderful space for a walk and relaxation with family in nature is offered by the nearby Rožkovianske rybníky ponds. An original attraction called Lačnovská gravitačná anomália can then be found in the territory of the nearby village of Lipovce, on the way to the Zlá diera cave. The ball is said to roll uphill here. Is that really so? Come and see for yourself.
