The town, famous for its Gothic architecture and its well preserved medieval town walls, was founded by German settlers invited by King Béla IV of Hungary after the Mongol Invasion. It was granted staple right and quickly got rich from its trade with Poland. In 1412 it became the member of the Pentapolitana, the alliance of the five most important free royal towns of northern Hungary led by Kassa. In 1453 Captain in Chief Hunyadi János crushed the army of Talafus, a leader of Czech Hussite marauders plundering northern Hungary, outside the walls of the town. Slovaks and Jews migrated to the town in the 18th century, and the trade started to decline with the partition of Poland. The Museum of Sáros was opened in the Gothic town hall in 1907. One of its most important attractions is the 14th century Gothic church dedicated to the patron of the town, St. Egidius. The Hungarian and German population was displaced by the Czechoslovaks during the 20th century.

Arrival of the Hungarians

The alliance of the seven Hungarian tribes took possession of the then largely uninhabited Carpathian Basin. Until then, the sparse Slavic population of the north-western Carpathians had lived under Moravian rule for a few decades after the collapse of the Avar Khaganate in the early 9th century.

Foundation of the Hungarian Kingdom

The Kingdom of Hungary was established with the coronation of King Stephen I. He converted the Hungarians to Christianity and created two archdioceses (Esztergom and Kalocsa) and ten dioceses. He divided Hungary into counties led by ispáns, who were appointed by the king.
12th century
Polish Cistercian monks settled in the area, but the monastery was destroyed in the Mongol invasion in 1241-42.
1241-1242
Mongol Invasion
Little more...
1241-1242
The hordes of the Mongol Empire invaded Hungary and almost completely destroyed it. One third to one half of the population was destroyed. The Mongols also suffered heavy losses in the battle of Muhi and they could not hunt down the king. After their withdrawal, King Béla IV reorganized Hungary. He allowed the feudal lords to build stone castles because they were able to successfully resist the nomadic Mongols. The vast majority of stone castles were built after this. The king called in German, Vlach (Romanian) and Slavic settlers to replace the destroyed population.
after 1242
German settlers arrived.
1247
The settlement was first mentioned during the reign of King Béla IV of Hungary, who invited many Germans to settle down in Hungary, in areas where the Mongols exterminated the population.

The extinction of the House of Árpád
Little more...
1301
The House of Árpád, the first Hungarian royal dynasty, died out with the death of King Andrew III. Hungary was ruled by oligarchs, the most powerful of whom was Csák Máté, whose main ally was the Aba family. King Charles I (1308-1342), supported by the Pope, eventually emerged as the most prominent of the contenders for the Hungarian throne. But it took decades to break the power of the oligarchs.
1318
It was a market town with right to stop commercial goods (staple right).
1376
King Louis I of Hungary made it a free royal town. The town got rich from the trade with the town of Biecz in Poland.
late 15th century
It was one of the 8 towns under the jurisdiction of the Master of the Treasury. The town was famous for its linen weaving manufactory.
1412
The 5 most important free royal towns made an alliance under the name Pentapolitana, these were: Kassa, Eperjes, Lőcse, Kisszeben, Bártfa. The purpose of the alliance was to regulate trade. The leading town was Kassa.
1440
After the death of King Albert of the House of Habsburg, the Estates of Hungary elected the Polish Ulászló to the throne. Elisabeth, the widow queen, in order to secure the throne for László, her baby boy, called in the Czech Hussite mercenary leader Jan Jiskra. She gave him the title "Captain of the Mining Towns and Kassa", and gave him the castle of Zólyom.
1440-1441
The Czech Hussites soon occupied much of northern Hungary, including Bártfa. They reinforced the castles and turned them into bandit lairs. They were pillaging everywhere and large areas became uninhabited. They wiped out the local German and Hungarian population, who were replaced by Czech and other Slavic settlers. The Czech Hussite devastation largely contributed to the Slavicisation of northern Hungary (now Slovakia).
1452
The Diet (Parliament) in Pozsony put Kassa, Lőcse and Bártfa under the protection of Cillei Ulrik, the great rival of Hunyadi János. The prelude of this was that Hunyadi János led a successful campaign at the end of 1451 against the Hussites.
1453
Captain in Chief Hunyadi János crushed the army of Talafus, a Hussite commander under Jiskra, outside the walls of Lőcse. The Parliament of Hungary paid a ransom for the castles and towns still in Jiskra's hands, afterwards Jiskra left the country. But some of his commanders still remained in the country and continued their evildoings.
1455
Baron Cillei Ulrik, the rival of Hunyadi János called in Jiskra again, and soon much of northern Hungary fell in his hands.
1462
At the end of the war that King Matthias of Hungary had waged against the Hussites since 1458, Jiskra swore loyalty to the king and handed over the castles he still held. Afterwards Jiskra fought in the service of King Matthias until his death.

Battle of Mohács and the splitting of Hungary into two parts
Little more...
1526
Sultan Suleiman I launched a war against Vienna, instigated by the French. Ferdinand I, Duke of Austria, was the brother-in-law of King Louis II of Hungary. The army of the Ottoman Empire defeated the much smaller Hungarian army at Mohács, and King Louis II died in the battle. A group of the barons elected Ferdinand I of the House of Habsburg to the throne, who promised to defend Hungary from the Turks. He was the younger brother of the most powerful European monarch Emperor Charles V. But the nobility chose the most powerful Hungarian baron, Szapolyai János, who was also crowned as King John I. The country was split in two and a decades-long struggle for power began.

The Turkish occupation of the capital, Buda, and the division of Hungary into three parts
Little more...
1541
The Turks conquered Buda, the capital of Hungary, after the death of King John I. The central part of the country was under Turkish rule for 150 years. The western and northern parts (including present-day Slovakia) formed the Kingdom of Hungary ruled by the Habsburg emperors. The eastern parts (now mainly under Romanian rule) were ruled by the successors of King John I of Hungary. In 1571, John II (John Sigismund), the son of King John I of Hungary, renounced the title of King of Hungary in favor of King Maximilian of the House of Habsburg, and henceforth held the title of Prince. This formally created the Principality of Transylvania, which was the eastern half of Hungary not ruled by the Habsburgs and was also a vassal of the Ottoman Empire. John II died in 1571, after which the three nations of Transylvania (the Hungarian nobility, the Székelys and the Saxons) elected the prince.

1604-1606
The alliance of the Habsburgs and the Principality of Transylvania was defeated by the Ottoman Empire in the Fifteen Years' War. The war devastated Transylvania, which was occupied by the Habsburg imperial army, and General Basta introduced a reign of terror. The nobility and the burghers were upset about the terror, the plundering mercenaries and the violent Counter-Reformation. Bocskai István decided to lead their uprising after the Habsburg emperor tried to confiscate his estates. Bocskai also rallied the hajdú warriors to his side. He was elected Prince of Transylvania and soon liberated the Kingdom of Hungary from the Habsburgs. In 1605 Bocskai István was crowned King of Hungary with the crown he received from the Turks.

On 18 July 1645 his army joined forces with Torstenson's Swedish army under Brno (Moravia). The excellent artillery of Transylvania opened fire on the city walls. However, Rákóczi had to give up the siege, having been informed that the Turks were planning a punitive campaign against Transylvania, because he went to war against the Sultan's prohibition.

Kuruc Movement
Little more...
after 1671
Many noble, burgher and preacher fled to the Principality of Transylvania and the territory under Turkish occupation from the reprisals after the exposure of the anti-Habsburg Wesselényi-conspiracy and from the violent Counter-Reformation. They were joined by dismissed Hungarian soldiers of the Turkish border forts, who were replaced by German mercenaries. They were called the fugitives (bujdosók). They started an armed movement against the Habsburg rule. Because of the Turkish ban, the Principality of Transylvania could not openly support them. From 1677, the French supported their cause with money and Polish mercenaries. They achieved their first serious success when they temporarily occupied the mining towns of northern Hungary (now central Slovakia) under the command of Thököly lmre. He then became the sole leader of the movement. In 1679, the French made peace with Emperor Leopold I and withdrew their support for the fugitives. Between 1678 and 1681 Thököly Imre led successful raids against the Habsburgs and their supporters in the territory of the Kingdom of Hungary. The insurgents were called kurucs.
late April, 1679
Father Józsa István, who frequently switched sides, looted Bártfa with his kuruc soldiers. Soon he sided with the Imperials, and on 21th of October the kurucs surrounded him at Tálya. He was caught and beheaded for his betrayal.

The combined armies of the Habsburg Empire and the Kingdom of Poland defeated the Turkish army besieging Vienna. Emperor Leopold I wanted to make peace with the Turks, but was refused by Sultan Mehmed IV. In 1684, at the persistent urging of Pope Innocent XI, the Holy League, an alliance of the Kingdom of Poland, the Habsburg Empire, the Republic of Venice and the Papal States, was formed to expel the Turks from Hungary. Thököly Imre, who had allied himself with the Turks, was gradually driven out of northern Hungary.

1685
The Pasha of Várad captured Thököly Imre as he was asking for Turkish help and offered him to Emperor Leopold I for peace. But the Imperial emissaries laughed at his face, because, having the upper hand, they no longer cared for Thököly. On the news of his capture, the town of Kassa and the kuruc strongholds surrendered to the Emperor one after the other. The Turks, seeing their fatal mistake, released Thököly the following year and tried to restore his authority, but his power was broken forever and the Hungarian insurgents no longer trusted the Turks. Most of the insurgents joined the imperial army and helped to liberate the rest of Hungary from the Turks.

Recapture of Buda and the liberation of Hungary from the Turks
Little more...
1686
The army of the Holy League recaptured Buda from the Turks by siege. In 1687, the Imperial army invaded the Principality of Transylvania. The liberation was hindered by the French breaking their promise of peace in 1688 and attacking the Habsburg Empire. By 1699, when the Peace of Karlóca was signed, all of Hungary and Croatia had been liberated from the Ottoman Empire with the exception of Temesköz, the area bounded by the Maros, the Tisza and the Danube rivers. It was not until the Peace of Požarevac in 1718 that Temesköz was liberated from the Turks. However, the continuous war against the Turkish invaders and the Habsburg autocracy, which lasted for more than 150 years, wiped out large areas of the Hungarian population, which had previously made up 80% of the country's population, and was replaced by Vlachs (Romanians), Serbs and other Slavic settlers and Germans. The Habsburgs also favoured the settlement of these foreign peoples over the 'rebellious' Hungarians.

1703-1711
Hungarian War of Independence led by Prince Rákóczi Ferenc II
Little more...
1703-1711
After the expulsion of the Turks, the Habsburgs treated Hungary as a newly conquered province and did not respect its constitution. The serfs rose up against the Habsburg ruler because of the sufferings caused by the war and the heavy burdens, and they invited Rákóczi Ferenc II to lead them. Trusting in the help promised by King Louis XIV of France, he accepted. Rákóczi rallied the nobility to his side, and soon most of the country was under his control. The rebels were called the kurucs. In 1704, the French and the Bavarians were defeated at the Battle of Blenheim, depriving the Hungarians of their international allies. The Rusyn, Slovak and Vlach peasants and the Saxons of Szepes supported the fight for freedom, while the Serbs in the south and the Saxons in Transylvania served the Habsburgs. Due to lack of funds Rákóczi could not raise a strong regular army, and in 1710, Hungary was also hit by a severe plague. Rákóczi tried unsuccessfully to forge an alliance with Tsar Peter the Great of Russia. In his absence, without his knowledge, his commander-in-chief, Károlyi Sándor, accepted Emperor Joseph I's peace offer. The Peace of Szatmár formally restored the Hungarian constitution and religious freedom and granted amnesty, but did not ease the burden of serfdom. Rákóczi refused to accept the pardon and went into exile. He died in Rodosto, Turkey.

Hungarian Revolution and War of Independence
Little more...
1848-1849
Following the news of the Paris Revolution on 22 February 1848, the Hungarian liberal opposition led by Kossuth Lajos demanded the abolition of serfdom, the abolition of the tax exemption of the nobility, a parliament elected by the people, and an independent and accountable national government. The revolution that broke out in Pest on 15 March expressed its demands in 12 points, which, in addition to the above mentioned, included the freedom of the press, equality before the law, the release of the political prisoners and the union with Transylvania. A Hungarian government was formed, Batthyány Lajos became prime minister, and on 11 April Emperor Ferdinand V ratified the reform laws. On August 31 the Emperor demanded the repeal of the laws threatening with military intervention. In September the Emperor unleashed the army of Jelacic, Ban of Croatia, on Hungary, but they were defeated by the Hungarians in the Battle of Pákozd on 29 September. An open war began for the independence of Hungary. The Habsburgs incited the nationalities against the Hungarians. The Rusyns, the Slovenes and most of the Slovaks and Germans supported the cause persistently, but the Vlachs (Romanians) and the Serbians turned against the Hungarians. The glorious Spring Campaign in 1849 led by General Görgei Artúr liberated almost all of Hungary. On 1 May 1849, Emperor Franz Joseph, effectively admitting defeat, asked for the help of Tsar Nicholas I of Russia, who sent an intervention army of 200,000 soldiers against Hungary. The resistance became hopeless against the overwhelming enemy forces and on 13 August Görgei Artúr surrendered to the Russians at Világos. Bloody reprisals followed, and on 6 October 1849, 12 generals and a colonel of the Hungarian Revolution, the martyrs of Arad, were executed in Arad. On the same day, Batthyány Lajos, the first Hungarian Prime Minister, was executed by firing squad in Pest. The Habsburgs introduced total authoritarianism in Hungary, but they also failed to fulfil their promises to the nationalities that had betrayed the Hungarians.
1867
Austro-Hungarian Compromise
Little more...
1867
The Habsburg Empire was weakened by the defeats it suffered in the implementation of Italian and German unity. The Hungarians wanted to return to the reform laws of 1848, but they did not have the strength to do so. Emperor Franz Joseph and the Hungarian opposition, led by Deák Ferenc, finally agreed to restructure the Empire and abolish absolutism. Hungary was given autonomy in its internal affairs, with its own government and parliament, which was essential for the development of its economy and culture. However, foreign and military affairs remained in the hands of the Habsburgs and served their aspiration for becoming a great power. The majority wanted Hungary's independence, but they were excluded from political power.

November 1918 - January 1919
In Hungary, the freemasonic subversion brought the pro-Entente Károlyi Mihály to power. The new government, naively trusting the Entente powers, met all their demands and disbanded the Hungarian military, which rendered the country completely defenseless in the most dire need. Under French and Italian command, Czech, Romanian and Serbian troops invaded large parts of Hungary, where they immediately began the takeover. They fired Hungarian railway workers, officials and teachers, banned the use of the Hungarian language, abolished Hungarian education, and disposed of everything that reminded them of the country's Hungarian past. Hundreds of thousands of Hungarians were forced to leave their homeland, and the forcible assimilation of the remaining Hungarians was begun.

21 March - 1 August 1919
After the Entente put vast areas with a Hungarian population under foreign administration, the pro-Entente government resigned and the traitorous Prime Minister Károlyi Mihály handed over power to the communists, who had little support anyway. They raised the Hungarian Red Army, which liberated large parts of northern Hungary from Czech occupation in the 'Northern Campaign'. The aim was to unite with the Russian Red Army, which ultimately failed because of the Russians' defeat. French Prime Minister Clemenceau promised the Jewish Kun Béla that he would recognise the Hungarian Soviet Republic and invite it to the peace conference if it would call back the army from northern Hungary. Calling back the army demoralized the soldiers, who fought for their homeland and not for communism. Clemenceau broke his promise and let the Romanian horde cross the Tisza River and capture Budapest.

Trianon Dictate
Little more...
4 June 1920
Hungary was forced to sign the Treaty of Trianon, although the country was not invited to the peace talks. Hungary lost two thirds of its territory that had belonged to it for more than 1000 years. One-third of the Hungarian population came under foreign rule. On the basis of the national principle, countries with a more mixed and less ethnically balanced composition than the former Hungary were created, such as Czechoslovakia and the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes (later Yugoslavia). For example, while 48% of the population of the territory ceded to Czechoslovakia was Slovak and 30% Hungarian, 54% of the population of the former Hungary was Hungarian and 10.6% Slovak. And in the territory that is now part of Serbia, the Hungarians outnumbered the Serbs. The part of the territory allocated to Romania from Hungary was larger than the remaining territory of Hungary, despite the fact that there were 10 million Hungarians and less than 3 million Romanians in the former Hungary. While Hungary used to have the most liberal nationality policy in Europe, the successor states had no respect at all for the national and cultural rights of the indigenous Hungarians and engaged in forced assimilation. The Trianon Dictate destroyed the organic economic unity of the region. Before the First World War, Hungary had a dynamic economy, more advanced than Spain's. After 1920, the successor states formed the so-called "Little Entente", putting Hungary under an economic blockade and sabotaging it on the international stage.

5 April 1945
In Hungarian-majority Kassa, the president of occupying Czechoslovakia, Edvard Beneš, promulgated his government program, the so-called Beneš decrees. As part of this, the Hungarian population was deprived of their rights. Their complete expulsion was planned, with the support of the Soviet Union, and only the veto of the USA prevented it. Under the 'Reslavakization' programme, only those Hungarians who recognised themselves as Slovaks were allowed to regain their rights, thus renouncing all linguistic and cultural rights. In the violent expulsions that followed, nearly 200,000 Hungarians were deprived of their property and expelled from their homeland on the basis of their nationality.

1 January 1993
Czechoslovakia disintegrated due to ethnic differences between Czechs and Slovaks, shortly after the withdrawal of Soviet tanks. Slovakia was formed entirely from territory carved out of historic Hungary, and Slovak national identity is still largely based on falsified history and artificial hatred of Hungarians. Despite deportations, expulsions, forced assimilation and strong economic pressure, there are still nearly half a million Hungarians living in the country.

Basilica of St. Egidius
History
St Egidius is the guardian of the town and the goldsmiths. They started to build the church in the second half of the 14th century. The main and the two side naves were finished by the year 1415. The tower was built between 1420 and 1427, which already had a clock. The sanctuary was finished in 1464. The church was restored from the damages caused by the earthquakes and the fire between 1879 and 1889 in Gothic style according the plans of Steindl lmre. The original Gothic main altar was completed in 1486, of which the statue of St. Eigidus and the pictures of St. Stephen and St. László survived. The current 17 meters high neo-Gothic main altar was made between 1883 and 1888 in the workshop of the wood carver Hölzer Mór in Bártfa according to the plans of Steindl lmre. On its wings 12 persons can bee seen, all are saints and blessed people from the Hungarian history (the artwork of Aggházy Gyula). Further treasures of the church include 11 late Gothic altars, the Gothic statues of the small Calvary of Master Lőcsei Pál, the St. Nicholas altar from 1524 and several Renaissance tombs. The "Pew of the Executioner" was made in 1492.
Calvary
History
The Calvary was built between 1863 and 1868 in neo-Romanesque style at the initiative of the local priest Kaczvinszky Eduárd. It was financed from public contributions. Bishop Perger János of Kassa consecrated the church in 1869. It was renovated in 1920-21. The underground chapel of Mary Magdalena opens on the western side.

Old Town Hall, Historical Exhibition of the Museum of Sáros
History
The old town hall was built between 1505 and 1511 in late Gothic style with Renaissance parts. It has a Renaissance stairway. It is considered to be the first Renaissance building in the territory of present-day Slovakia. There is a clock on its wall from the 16th century, below that the coat of arms of Hungary can be seen, and above the clock is the statue of the knight Roland.
It hosts now the historical and liturgical exhibition of the Museum of Sáros. The museum was established in 1903. Its first director, Vass A., was the director of the local grammar school. The first exhibition, relating to the history of Sáros County within Hungary, was opened in 1907. The famous art historian and photograph Divald Kornél had an important role in the establishment of the museum and also in collecting the materials for the exposition.

Lower Gate and Stone Bridge
History
The fortifications of the town were built after the Mongol Invasion. It had four gates, which opened to the south, west, north and northeast. The plain of the town slightly slopes north, so the southern gate, which was located on the highest point, was called Upper Gate, while the northeastern gate, which was located on the lowest point, was called Lower Gate. The walls were defended by wide moats.
The trade road coming from the central regions of Hungary left the town towards Poland through the Lower Gate. From the town gate a little wooden bridge led to a half-round barbican, which still stands, surrounded by moats. From the barbican a drawbridge led across the moat. After the fortifications of the town lost their significance, the wooden bridges over the moats were demolished and a new stone bridge was raised with two 5-metres wide arches in 1821. A similar stone bridge was built to connect the barbican with the town but it had only one arch.

Birthplace and Plaque of Kéler Béla
History
The Renaissance house dates back to the 17th century, and it was originally Gothic. Kéler Béla was born here in 1820. He was a famous music composer and conductor of orchestra in his time, but now he is nearly completely forgotten. He was born in a Lutheran noble family. The house was marked with a plaque in 1906, and the following was written on it: "Kéler Béla composer was born in this house on Februar 23, 1820. Placed by the grateful Hungarian community in memory of the famous composer". The Czechoslovaks removed the plaque and now another plaque commemorates the birth of "Vojtech Kéler" only in Slovak language.

Bells
History
The John Bell was prepared for the church in 1486. The bigger, 4-tonns Urban Bell was made in 1584 in Tarnow, Poland. This was created for community purposes, such as signaling natural disasters (fire, flood, storm), approaching enemies, the arrival of important visitor or the election of the mayor. Both bells cracked in 1990 during the last renovation of the church between 1986 and 1999. After having been restored, they were placed on the square south of the sanctuary of the church.

In 1453 Captain in Chief Hunyadi J\u00e1nos crushed the army of Talafus, a leader of Czech Hussite marauders plundering northern Hungary, outside the walls of the town. Slovaks and Jews migrated to the town in the 18th century, and the trade started to decline with the partition of Poland. The Museum of S\u00e1ros was opened in the Gothic town hall in 1907. One of its most important attractions is the 14th century Gothic church dedicated to the patron of the town, St. Egidius.

The original Gothic main altar was completed in 1486, of which the statue of St. Eigidus and the pictures of St. Stephen and St. L\u00e1szl\u00f3 survived.
