Stara Lubovna, is a town of 16.000 in northern part of Slovakia, close to Polish border.
Stara Lubovna is a city from the medieval times, as it was part of Kingdom of Hungary, later the Austro-hungarian monarchy.
From a hill over the city the castle of Lubovna dominates the city. The castle is open to the public and houses a museum about its history. From its already reconstructed tower there are good views over the surroundings.
Next to the castle there is an open-air museum, Lubovansky skanzen, with many houses and other buildings showing the folk architecture of the region. The most interesting exhibit is the wooden Greek-Catholic church from Matysova, built in 1833.
The old town consists mainly of the rectangular St. Nicolas Square which is surrounded by burgher’s houses of the 17th century. In the centre there is the gothic Roman Catholic Church of St. Nicolas built in 1280.
