Mansion in Stropkov
Contacts
Description
The manor house in Stropkov, located in the town center, is a remnant of the former Stropkov castle, which had the shape of a pentagon. The Renaissance mansion was rebuilt several times and replaced several owners. The current one is the Municipality of Stropkov, which provided the ground floor and attic of the building for museum purposes.
The manor house is a national cultural monument and the seat of the Regional Museum in Prešov. The most valuable part of the mansion with preserved Renaissance characters is the so-called Knight's hall, which today serves for temporary exhibitions.
The permanent exposition that visitors can see in the mansion is the exposition "Dolls from the World and Dolls from Literature". The exhibition of dolls presents dolls in various clothes and from around the world as well as literary works.
The permanent artistic exposition is the exposition entitled "František Veselý and his Work", which presents several dozen paintings of this Stropkov native.
