Molpír (page 2 of 2)

Smolenice –

If you find yourself in the vicinity of Smolenický zámok and you like nature, we have an excellent tip for a trip for you. Above the village of Smolenice, in the Malé Karpaty mountain range, the hill Molpír rises to a height of 354 m above sea level. Here, over an area of 14 hectares, lie the remnants of a hillfort from the Early Iron Age. Engage your children in exploration and set out with them on an easy hike combined with discovery and fun.

These ruins were first mapped and explored by the Smolenice priest Sándorfi in 1890. It is estimated that the hillfort originated approximately in the 6th century BC. This unique fortification was built from dry-stacked stone with reinforced embankments and a wooden structure. The entire area can be divided into three spaces, two outer baileys and an acropolis, which were protected by ramparts. Dwellings in the upper outer bailey and the acropolis were constructed using log building techniques, with walls plastered with clay and floors laid with flat stones. Heating was provided by simple hearths as well as domed ovens.

During its heyday, approximately 800 people lived in the hillfort. The inhabitants engaged in craft production, the manufacture of weapons and knives, casting of bronze vessels, production of stone querns, and they also produced threads and fabrics. Archaeologists found remnants of hand-carved bones with spiral decoration, numerous spindle whorls, loom weights, and ceramics at the hillfort site. An exhibition of these finds can be found in Múzeum Molpír.

The educational trail Smolenický kras, which begins near the Smolenice church, will lead you right to the hillfort. While ascending Molpír hill, you can enjoy a beautiful view of Smolenický zámok. Part of the trail includes information boards and two replicas of historical log cabins.

In the surroundings of Smolenice, there are many interesting places worth seeing. On your wanderings, definitely visit the gorgeous Smolenický zámok and discover the underground world of Jaskyňa Driny as well. After a day full of experiences, treat yourself to a rest and stay in a cozy cottage or use the services of local guesthouses.
