The village of Skýcov

The village, hidden in the Tribeč Mountains, was almost completely burned down in March 1945. All that remained was a church, a rectory, a school and several houses. However, life has returned here and the locals do not forget their past.

Every year, the tragic 15th and 16th March 1945 are commemorated by a reverential memorial gathering. To this day, there is a regular march through the Educational Partisan Trail Skýcov - Zlatno. During the march, its participants can be not only enthusiastic about nature, but also get acquainted with the events of the war. The dominant feature of Skýcov is a manor house from the 17th century. In 1883, its owner Arthur Odescalchi began the reconstruction. Uneven outcrops, a play of materials and shapes, together with the Nebojsa tower, a moat and a drawbridge, created a vision of the castle, which was built in the 12th and 13th centuries. It was also burned down during the war, but thanks to its new owners, the manor house has been preserved and gradually returned to its original condition.
