In the presented study, the authors focus on the development of fortification architecture of the 16th and 17th century and the citadel of Košice as a significant fortress of the Habsburg monarchy defence system. Gradually, they introduce the readers to individual engineering branches in Europe (Old Italian, New Italian, Old Dutch, Old German, New Dutch, French, New Prussian and Austrian), as well as the differences in the construction elements of individual fortification systems. The citadel of Košice, (1671 – early 18th century) belongs to the circuit of modern renaissance or even baroque bastion fortresses. It was built in the southern suburb of Košice and several personalities were involved in its construction, including Colonel Jakub von Holst; captain of the Upper Hungarian Chief Captaincy seated in Košice, Paris de Spankau; the royal builder, Lucas Georg Sicha; and his assistant military building master, Giovanni Alessandro Canevale.

The paper presents the results of a non-destructive survey (geo-radar measurement, surface survey, archival research) of the Chapel of the Nativity of the Virgin Mary standing near the village of Horný Pial and summarizes the existing knowledge about this object. The chapel was long considered a modern building, nowadays its medieval origin is accepted, although relevant written sources are missing. In the years 2016 – 2018, a surface survey was carried out on agricultural land around the chapel. Several finds documenting the settlement of the site in prehistoric, medieval and modern times were obtained. In 2018, a georadar survey was carried out on the site. A total of six areas were measured in the interior and exterior of the church. Anomalous zones were measured in both the nave and the sanctuary of the church, on the basis of which we can assume the presence of four additional floors under the current floor. In the exterior, the remains of the defunct enclosure wall were recorded on the outer edges of the investigated area, on the other hand, no traces of the supposed sacristy were recorded. The results of surveys and archival research of modern canonical visitations supported considerations about the medieval origin of the chapel.
