A village that arose as a border guard village of the Spiš region in the 12-th century. You can find there a Gothic church of St. Michal from the 13-th century with ruins of the castle that remained till today. Later the village became the seat of the Mariassy family.
They decided to built there a Renaissance manor-house, which was later refurbished in the Rococo style. Nowadays there is an exposition of quaint furniture. The manor-house is surrounded by a french-style park with a summer resort, Dardanely, which was built in the Rococo style. Inside is an exposition of quaint keyboard musical instruments.
