Accommodation Izba starých materí

Párnica is one of those picturesque villages in Slovakia that can rightfully claim the attribute "a village in the valley." It lies in the valley of the Orava River, surrounded by the peaks of the Malá Fatra mountains and the Oravská vrchovina highlands. And it is precisely this village located in the Dolný Kubín district that has prepared a real time-travel adventure for its visitors. An unconventional museum bearing the name Izba starých materí was opened here. In addition to a unique historical exhibition offering a return to the history of the village, this site can also become the backdrop for your photos or even the venue for your romantic and adventurous night in the museum.

Izba starých materí is the result of a small exhibition of historical artifacts that the village of Párnica organized on the occasion of its 590th anniversary. This exhibition charmed locals and visitors to such an extent that the village decided to establish its own municipal museum. The home of the permanent exhibition bearing the name Izba starých materí became a beautiful 150-year-old building, known among the residents as the old post office. It is built in a gentry (zemiansky) style, and all original decorative elements have been preserved. Ranks of local volunteers who value the heritage of their ancestors participated in its reconstruction.

The exhibition itself consists of 230 historical artifacts donated or loaned to the museum by citizens and natives of the village of Párnica. Here, you can visit a countryside room, a barn, and a separate room with period documents, including photographs illustrating life in the village throughout past years. A true gem of the building is a hand-painted chest from 1908. Among the most interesting artifacts is a military trunk with its original contents, a school chronicle, a savings book from Tatra banka from 1940, as well as a historical document from 1943, likely a predecessor of today's prenuptial agreement.
