Vernacular architecture and habitation in the East Slovak Lowland in photo collections

• Languages of publication: SK

Abstracts

EN

The East Slovak Lowland is a predominantly rural region featuring marginalized historical development and low concern of ethnologists. The essay presents photo-documentation of vernacular buildings from this region, which is open to the public in eight museum archives, heritage offices and academic institutes in five Slovak and Czech cities - Michalovce, Košice, Prešov, Martin and Prague. Even though most photo-documents come from the second half of the 20th century, they could capture many ancient building phenomena even in that younger period. The presented collections are a valuable basis to study vernacular architecture and habitation in the East Slovak Lowlands as well as in lowlands generally.
