The medieval towns of Bardejov, Prešov, Sabinov and Veľký Šariš, which were situated in the northeast of the former Kingdom of Hungary (Šariš County) and which acquired their fundamental privileges in 1299 and 1320, have been given considerable attention in historiography to date. Nevertheless, a serious diversity of opinions still persists, accompanied by inconsistent terminology for some essential issues, particularly with regards to the extent of jurisdictional rights and the urban status of these settlements in the first century after the granting of their privileges. The aim of this study is, therefore, to arrive at clearer conclusions on the question of when the four towns were endowed with full judicial autonomy (i.e. an upper judiciary) and how to classify them at all in the fourteenth century.

A particularly understudied topic concerning the medieval city of Košice in the Hungarian kingdom is the development and size of its suburbs. Only a few historians have dealt with this issue so far, as most of the research attention has focused on the walled area. In the course of the current preparatory work on the Historical Atlas of Košice, it has therefore become necessary to explore this issue much more comprehensively than hitherto. The author of this study re-identifies the location of individual suburban streets and adjacent religious buildings and defines their legal relationship to the city. Based on fragmentary tax registers, he also attempts to determine the number of taxpayers and inhabitants outside the city walls.

The study deals with the former market place in the city of Košice (former Kingdom of Hungary, now Slovakia), that has completely disappeared. The author presents the state of knowledge, archival sources and archaeological research in the introductory part of the text. Then he discusses the topography of the square and the role of the town hall there (no longer existing, too). Having analysed the written reports and compared Košice with foreign towns, especially Polish ones, the author subsequently identifies and locates, sometimes just tentatively, various stalls that stood on the market square between the end of the 14th and the beginning of the 17th century. A special chapter is aimed on the location of the butcher’s stalls situated on the nearby street. Finally, a brief consideration is given to the share of income from the stalls in the town’s budget, followed by a conclusion.

The author is concerned with the suburbs of the town of Košice in the middle ages. He assesses the question of the origin of the suburban settlements and their administrative position, both secular and ecclesiastical, in relation to the town. The aim of the study is to find out whether some suburban settlements of medieval Košice had older origins than the privileged town itself. Such circumstances would probably be reflected in administrative arrangements. However, the achievement of a more comprehensive result is obstructed by the fact that there has been hardly any archaeological research in the given territory, and more extensive written sources begin only in the Late Middle Ages.
