As for the Slovakian history, the second half of the 19th century saw efforts for acknowledgement of the Slovakian folk that lived in Upper Hungary. The always stronger policy of magyarization was not favourable to the expressions from the Slovakian ethnic group which could disrupt the political line of the Hungarian nation. As a result of this, cultural and social activities were limited, which brought about a weak support to the scientific work focused on Slovakian ethnography. Ethnographic papers from that period focused on the documentation of Slovakian embroideries and lace and the research into folk literature. Vernacular architecture was outside this research. The reversal came only in connection with the Czechoslavic Ethnographic Exhibition in Prague in 1895 where traditional architecture of Slovakia was presented through models and three buildings in the exhibition village. The great response among the wide and professional public (especially the presentation of a farmstead from Čičmany) drew attention to Slovakia as an unresearched ethnographic territory. The Czechoslavic Ethnographic Exhibition was the first important impulse for the documentation of and research into vernacular architecture in Slovakia, which started developing fully in the 1930s.
