The article brings the first information about the research of the baroque church of St. Nicholas in Kovarce, dist. Topoľčany. The research was carried out in 2016–2019 and was induced by the construction activity (hot water connection and lightning conductor). During the archaeological research several new building units were uncovered and documented: a smaller room in the NW corner of the church, a crypt under the northern sacristy and the eastern part of the extinct original polygonal Gothic presbytery of the older church. Three medieval graves from the church cemetery were also documented. In the crypt we documented the remains of A. Wels from the end of the 19th century (great-grandfather of British actress A. Hepburn). Material culture acquired during the research documents the life in the village in the 17th–18th century and grave equipment of the second half of the 19th cent. The anthropological analysis of found skeletal remains is also a part of the paper.

The submitted article presents results of the archaeological and architectonic-historical investigation of the Church of St. Martin in Hontianska Vrbica, Levice district. The beginnings of the church had been dated to the 15th century. The archaeological investigation and architectonic-historical analysis of uncovered architecture moved the date of its origin to the late 12th – early 13th century. Remains of an extinct Romanesque church with a three-quarter-cylindrical apse and its younger early-Gothic addition in the south have been identified there. Thanks to the investigations, we have obtained new information on the structural development of the church in the high Gothic, late Gothic and Baroque periods. The contribution analyses 17 burials from the adjacent uncovered church cemetery and their finds. Special attention is paid to two Baroque tombs discovered inside the church. We obtained well preserved remains of Baroque male clothes of a so-far unknown local thane from one of the tombs.
