The study is based on the APVV project that focused on the socio-cultural capital of successful Slovak municipalities, bearers of the “Village of the Year” title, which can serve as a source of inspiration for other municipalities in improving the quality of life in the countryside. The aim of this study is to highlight the possibilities for the development of local communities in the context of geographical and economic determining factors and to observe the use of the socio-cultural capital as a source of sustainable growth also in the context of cultural and local identity. The study analyses two concrete examples aimed to increase the attractiveness of the sites through the presentation of their socio-cultural potential. The first case covers the municipality of Hrušov and its participation in the Hont Eco-Museum project, implemented within the wider micro-region. In the second case, we explore the municipality of Spišský Hrhov and its analogical example – the museum of music Muzik Muzeum. The study was based mainly on the results of the pilot research and subsequent ethnological field research in both municipalities, conducted predominantly by means of direct interviews with the locals, newcomers as well as leaders of the municipalities in 2018. The synthesis of the conclusions is based on a comparison of some determining factors of the development of both sites (the proximity and accessibility of urban centres, economic or confessional aspects in relation to the local community).

The blueprinting workshop of E. Monstek in Hranovnica was among those workshops that had been functioning the longest in the region of Spis ( until the beginning of 70ties of 20th century). The movable items are in the administration of the 'Podtatranské museum' in Poprad and the buildings are in the owenrship of the village of Hranovnica. The article analyses the possibilities for renovation of this handcraft workshop from the museal presentation point of view. In addition, it also looks for ways to revitalise the production that would make possible to connect the presentation in the museum with active interaction with visitors.

The study focusses on the region of Upper Spiš in Slovakia, beneath the High Tatras. The mentioned data are primarily based on multi-year ethnologic field research. The results of diet monitoring confirm that the diet is conditioned by primarily geographic, economic, and ethnic determinants based on which a location within the defined area creates specific lines: a) locations with mining industry in addition to primary agriculture, in which inter-ethnic, mainly German-Slovak socio-cultural contexts oscillate; b) locations with dominating agrarian culture and pastoralism in connection with Wallachian colonization, where we can also find Polish and Slovak influences, c) Tatra locations with focus on the High Tatras and the associated development of tourism. In the above-mentioned context, several specific features with distinctive cultural and identification accent has been created in the diet (designation of society members according to typical dishes). The diet and the processes and products associated with it can be undoubtedly defined as an element of communities´ identity, and within those ties as an important part of cultural heritage in the perspectives of sustainable development. However, a corresponding way and extent of preservation and mediation under current conditions is unavoidable, considering the developed tourism in that Tatra region.

The study follows the inter-ethnic, economic and socio-cultural links of the blueprint. As a specific product of traditional craftsmanship, it is closely related to the history and culture of our ethnicity. This element of cultural heritage captures not only its material, but also social contexts. It accentuates the inter-ethnic relations of the blueprint with an emphasis on the issues of cultural identity. This is documented by the idea of a common nomination of the technology of blueprint making into the UNESCO Representative List of Intangible Cultural Heritage (Slovakia, Czech Republic, Austria, Hungary, and Germany). The condition was that it had to be first entered on the national lists of cultural heritage. The study is based on a long-term ethnological field research in the Spiš region. Its aim is to monitor the condition and possibilities of revitalizing the blueprint as one of the basic presumptions of sustainability within our cultural heritage.

This study describes a variety of approaches to communication by museums involved in cultural heritage exchange. It focuses on the region of High Tatras which is the most important centre of tourism in Slovakia. It also looks at the specifics of how tourism developed in the region. The data was collected over a multi-year series of ethnological field research trips, and primarily conducted by means of structured interviews, oral histories and participatory observation. The paper concentrates on shifts in the area of museum communication, from the classical interpretative approach towards exhibitions that present their subject matter in a more flexible way, with a focus on emotional experience. The article aims to use some chosen case studies of small, independent museums and galleries from the town of Vysoké Tatry, in the High Tatras, to highlight the importance of sustainability, especially in terms of the growth of tourism.
