Civic organisation Archeopark Liptovia is a voluntary organization associating people with an interest in presentation, protection, research and education in historical, cultural, folklore, national and natural heritage of Slovakia and Liptov region.
Archeopark Liptovia is a unique project of living ancient village consisting of a complex of prehistoric buildings, which is documenting the settlement of Slovakia from the Stone Age to the Great Migration period.
Since 1977 archaeological research have been realized by Archaeological Institute of SAV in Nitra in the area of Várhegy located in the village of Nižná Myšľa, examining skeletal burial ground and since 1988 there have been a research by Eastern Slovak Museum in Košice, which examines the fortified settlement from the Bronze Age. The authors of the research are Ladislav Olexa and Dárius Gašaj.
We try to present the public with the results of dozens of archaeological seasons through the replicas of the houses, fortifications and farm buildings built in the places where they originally stood and were the objects of archaeological research. In the area there is a partially reconstructed fortified settlement with a gateway and bridged moat. A replica of a log house and a house made of rows of poles from the Bronze Age are also parts of the complex. An event called Return to Várhegy takes place in this area once a year.
Prehistoric village project "Wet nook" is established by Ipea civic Association in Vyšný Kubín. We are focusing on dynamic presentation of ancient life based on local prehistoric culture. The main initiative was to build up a residential property along with production area and outbuilding.
The village Vyšný Kubín is situated on north Slovakia region – dolná Orava (lower Orava). From historical point of view is this area well known for its inhabitation by lusatian culture influence mainly from early and late Bronze Age until late Iron Age. The reconstruction of lusatian house is based on Slovak Academy of Science archaeological discovery back in 2008 done in Dolný Kubín, Ožinica district. The project has started in 2012 by building up the reconstruction of lusatian culture estate and shelters, which are used to present activities directly connected to the ancient time frame.
