History
Have you heard of the gazebo that used to be on Artificial Hill? It was built by Count Jozef Brunsvik around 1821. The gazebo was the highest point in the cadastre of Dolná Krupá. After 200 years, the gazebo will return to its place and another of the 7 LOWER WONDERS WONDERS will proudly tower over our village. If you have a trip around the vineyard, you can go check the ongoing construction work.

Artificial Hill - Weinberg

Have you heard of the gazebo that used to be on Artificial Hill? It was built by Count Jozef Brunsvik around 1821. The gazebo was the highest point in the cadastre of Dolná Krupá. After 200 years, the gazebo will return to its place and another of the 7 LOWER WONDERS WONDERS will proudly tower over our village. If you have a trip around the vineyard, you can go check the ongoing construction work.

We are grateful to the great-grandfather of Pink Countess Jozef Brunsvik for another unique thing - an artificial hill - the seventh wonder of the village. It was completed by people sometime between 1813 and 1819, when the terrain behind the manor house was modified at great expense. An artificial hill grew at the highest point in the middle of the future vineyard, as one of the parts of the magnificent natural landscape complex. The hill was piled up by subjects and furmans from the area for many months, and even today their work is clearly visible. The Kopec elevation (238 m above sea level) rises to a height of approximately 15 meters at the highest point above the surrounding terrain, and around its perimeter the terrain increases by approximately 170 meters.
