Levocha is not a lost city

Center of Levocha – a Slovakian town population which does not reach even 15,000 people -is an open-air museum on history of Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque. It is also a tutorial on at least one subject: how to save, how not to lose a beautiful city.

 Medieval plaster pieces have fallen off in some places, exposing the stones from the 15th century, corrosion damages the railing and a face can be barely seen at the fresco, but all of this is incredibly beautiful and touching.

The city retains old-world charm that is not spoiled by modern interventions. The preserved center of Levocha is a world heritage site by UNESCO since 2009, and now one can be sure in its destiny – if the adornment of the city will be taken, it will be done only under professional supervision.

Now Levocha is a tourist city. 

More on how Levocha managed to maintain its fabulousness and impressions of the city can be read in the material . And now we present what an eye of a man who is in love with the noble architectural features may catch…
