Levoča

Reiseguide

the cage of shame is now open and you can get in!
Staying in the cage was considered as disgrace for the punished and as a warning for the others. Because of this reason, the punishment was often carried out during the fairs when the whole square was full of people. Bystanders usually treated the punished quite bad – calling names, spitting and throwing rotten vegetables or even stones was quite common. The most frequent inhabitants of the cage were women who appeared in the streets of Levoča after the lamps were lit, not accompanied by men.

Levoča is a great town to visit in Eastern Slovakia. It has a great historic centre as well as intact city walls. It is a UNESCO World Heritage site. This photo shows the Basilica of St James and the Old Town Hall. The “cage of shame” punishment cage dating back to the 17th Century is seen in the photo just above the flowerbed! Definitely a very photogenic and interesting town which is well worth a visit.
Renaissance Church in the historic town centre of Levoča, in eastern Slovakia.

The town walls are well preserved, and the town and local monuments are a UNESCO site.

My home town, my favorite view. The historic Town Hall with a characteristic renaissance tower clock is one of the most beautiful buildings of the famous royal town of Levoča. It is located right in the heart of the town next to the St. James church. Its origin dates back to the 15th century. At present, the Town Hall houses a branch of the Spiš Museum focused on the history of Levoča.

Hotel agréable. Les chambres sont de très grandes dimensions et la literie confortable. Petit dejeuner de qualités. Les chambres donnent sur une zone piétonne juste à côté de la basilique. Stationnement privé de grande taille. Restaurant de bonne qualité au rez-de-chaussée de l'hôtel.

7,6/10 Good! (34 anmeldelser)
Voin lämpimästi suositella! Oli mieleenpainuva kokemus. Hotelli on linnoituksen sisällä ikivanhassa rakennuksessa ja sisällä pystyy kokemaan historian havinaa. Vaikka hotellin omat palvelut ja käytännöt eivät välttämättä ole siitä parhaasta päästä ja ehkäpä se huonekaan ei oikein täytä nykystandardeja, ...

Goede accommodatie
Positieve ervaring met twee min punten, nl. de verwarming op de badkamer stond d veel te hoog en kon niet afgezet worden. Er was nergens in de buurt, maar dan ook nergens een plaats waar we konden een ontbijt kopen.
