Coa Slovakia Town Rožňava

The town of Rozsnyó surrounded by the Gömör-Szepes Ore Mountains was originally a mining settlement founded by German settlers in the 13th century. Gold, silver and later mainly iron was mined. During the Hungarian War of Independence between 1703 and 1711, Prince Rákóczi Ferenc II and his court decided to convene the country assembly to Ónod in order to dethrone the House of Habsburg while they stayed in Rozsnyó. In 1776 Empress Maria Theresia made Rozsnyó an episcopal seat, which affected it greatly. Many famous people attended its schools. The town owes much to its rich patrons Count Andrássy Dénes and especially his wife Countess Franciska, who has a statue on the main square. The Museum of Mining was opened in 1912 with their support. The museum had to be closed after the Czechoslovak occupation in 1919, and it could be reopened only in 1938, when the predominantly Hungarian town returned to Hungary. The museum was closed again after the Soviet invasion and the recreation of Czechoslovakia. Fortunately it is now open and receives visitors.

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

1000
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.
13th century
The settlement was founded by German settlers, as a mining settlement.
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.
1291
It was mentioned for the first time as Rosenaubana. King Andrew III of Hungary gave the settlement to the Archbishop of Esztergom.
1301
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.
1340
The town received privileges from Charles I of Hungary.
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. They occupied Rozsnyó and built a fortification. 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
Hunyadi János drove the Hussites out of Rozsnyó, but they soon returned.
1454
The town was in the hands of the rogue knight Komorowski Péter, who handed it over to Captain in Chief Rozgonyi Osvát together with other castles.
1460
The commander of King Matthias, Rozgonyi Sebestyén took back the castles of Gömör County, including Rozsnyó from the Hussites.
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, who later established the Principality of Transylvania.

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.

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.

1683
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.

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.

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.

Cathedral of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary into Heaven
History

The construction started in the 13th century and was finished in 1304. It was originally a Gothic church, which was reconstructed several times. It has been a cathedral since 1776, when Empress Maria Theresia established the Diocese of Rozsnyó. The current tower was built between 1778 and 1779. The late Baroque main altar was made in 1779 by Gode József. He made the pulpit as well in 1770. The painting of the altar is from 1513 and bears the title "St Anne in a company of three". It illustrates St. Anne with Virgin Mary and Jesus. St. Anne is considered to be the mother of Virgin Mary.

History

The two large statues made of linden wood standing on the sides of the entrance represent Moses and King David. There is a basement under the central nave of the church. It was once the cellar of the demolished town hall, now it is the crypt of the church. Archbishop Lippay György ordered the construction of the church for the Jesuits. The construction took place between 1658 and 1682. The Protestant inhabitants of Rozsnyó weren't very pleased with having to build a church for the Jesuits so they used cheap, low-quality materials. Even the arch collapsed once during the construction because of this. During the uprising of Thököly Imre the Jesuits were temporarily driven away in 1682, which stopped the construction. The church was acquired by the Norbertines in 1778, who established a grammar school in Rozsnyó, hence the name of the church. Now it is used by the Franciscans.

The building that can be seen today was built between 1904 and 1906 from the donation of the Andrássy family (Andrássy Dénes and Géza). After the Czechoslovak invasion it was taken over by the state in order to stifle Hungarian-Ianguage education.

Museum of Mining and Metallurgy, Sentinel Advanture Center
History

One of the predecessors of the museum was founded by the National Hungarian Association of Mining and Metallurgy with the financial support of Count Andrássy Dénes and his wife, Franciska. The Museum of Mining and Metallurgy opened its first exhibition in 1912.

The other predecessor was the Municipal Museum of Rozsnyó opened in 1912. Both of the museums had to be closed in 1919 after the Czechoslovak invasion. When the town returned to Hungary in 1938, the two collections were united and the museum reopened. After the Soviet invasion in 1945 the museum was closed again. The collection was stored in the courtyard of the palace of Betler under open sky for a long time.

The building of the museum was built between 1905 and 1910. There are cast iron gravestones from the graveyard of Rozsnyó in its courtyard. These were made by iron founders and smiths from Lubény and Dobsina. The oldest one is from 1808.

Statue of Kossuth Lajos
History

The three-meters high bronze statue of Kossuth Lajos was unveiled in 1907 on the main square of Rozsnyó.

Kossuth Lajos was the political leader of the Hungarian War of Independence between 1848 and 1849. The statue was made by Róna József.

In 1919 the invading soldiers of the Czechoslovak Legion tore it down and the statue of Stefánik was put in its place. After the Hungarian town returned to Hungary in 1938, the statue of Kossuth Lajos was reerected (the leaving Czechoslovaks took the Stefánik statue with them). In 1945 the Soviet tanks brought back the Czechoslovak oppressors and the statue of Kossuth Lajos was removed once again. The Hungarians hid it among the trash in the boiler house of the Museum of Mining to prevent it from being melted by the invaders. In 2004 the statue was again unveiled on the square before the Museum of Mining. The main square is still marred by the statue of Stefánik, the symbol of occupation.

M.R.Stefánik was born in a Slovak family of 12 children in Kosaras, that was part of Hungary. His father was a Slovak nationalist, a member of the extreme separatist Slovak National Party and

he raised his children in the same spirit. Stefánik attended the grammar schools of Pozsony (at that time it was a Hungarian and German town) and Sopron (Hungary), and he passed his final exams in the Evangelic Grammar School of Szarvas (Hungary).

He learned at the University of Prague, where his philosophy teacher was Masaryk, who influenced him with his idea of the Czech and Slovak unification. In Prague he started to write untruthful articles in newspapers about the oppression of the Slovaks by the Hungarians. After the breaking of the First World War in 1914, he betrayed his homeland, joined the French Foreign Legion and became a fighter pilot. In 1916 the Czechoslovak National Council was formed in Paris, and Masaryk became its president. They organized the Czechoslovak Legion from Czech and Slovak deserters. Its main purpose was to occupy Bohemia and northern Hungary after the defeat of the Central Powers. In November 1, 1918 the Czechoslovak Legion started the invasion of northern Hungary under the command of Italian officers. In January, 1919 Pozsony was also occupied. They invaded large areas with Hungarian majority as well, and the Slovaks formed only less then 50 percent of the population of the occupied territory. In May, 1919 Stefánik was travelling by plane from Udine to Pozsony but his plane crashed during landing. All the passengers died. There were several theories.

The Czech Masaryk and Beneš wanted to a suppress the Slovaks in the Czechoslovak state that was to be created from the very beginning, thus they had a serious disagreement with Stefánik.

According to the reports Stefánik was travelling on an Italian plane, which was taken as a Hungarian plane because of its flag of green-white-red colors, and was shot down by the Czechoslovak soldiers. But according to the Slovak nationalist politician Andrej Hlinka, the plane landed, but Stefánik was shot at the command of Beneš as soon as he got out of the plane.

Gold, silver and later mainly iron was mined. During the Hungarian War of Independence between 1703 and 1711, Prince R\u00e1k\u00f3czi Ferenc II and his court decided to convene the country assembly to \u00d3nod in order to dethrone the House of Habsburg while they stayed in Rozsny\u00f3. In 1776 Empress Maria Theresia made Rozsny\u00f3 an episcopal seat, which affected it greatly. Many famous people attended its schools. The town owes much to its rich patrons Count Andr\u00e1ssy D\u00e9nes and especially his wife Countess Franciska, who has a statue on the main square. The Museum of Mining was opened in 1912 with their support. The museum had to be closed after the Czechoslovak occupation in 1919, and it could be reopened only in 1938, when the predominantly Hungarian town returned to Hungary. The museum was closed again after the Soviet invasion and the recreation of Czechoslovakia. Fortunately it is now open and receives visitors.","nameorigin":" From the German \u0022Rosenau\u0022, meaning rose grove.","history":"#1|@#3|@13th century|The settlement was founded by German settlers, as a mining settlement.@#5|@1291|It was mentioned for the first time as Rosenaubana.

Archbishop Lippay Gy\u00f6rgy ordered the construction of the church for the Jesuits. The construction took place between 1658 and 1682. The Protestant inhabitants of Rozsny\u00f3 weren't very pleased with having to build a church for the Jesuits so they used cheap, low-quality materials.

The statue was made by R\u00f3na J\u00f3zsef.@In 1919 the invading soldiers of the Czechoslovak Legion tore it down and the statue of Stef\u00e1nik was put in its place. After the Hungarian town returned to Hungary in 1938, the statue of Kossuth Lajos was reerected (the leaving Czechoslovaks took the Stef\u00e1nik statue with them). In 1945 the Soviet tanks brought back the Czechoslovak oppressors and the statue of Kossuth Lajos was removed once again. The Hungarians hid it among the trash in the boiler house of the Museum of Mining to prevent it from being melted by the invaders. In 2004 the statue was again unveiled on the square before the Museum of Mining. The main square is still marred by the statue of Stef\u00e1nik, the symbol of occupation.@M.R.Stef\u00e1nik was born in a Slovak family of 12 children in Kosaras, that was part of Hungary. His father was a Slovak nationalist, a member of the extreme separatist Slovak National Party and@he raised his children in the same spirit. Stef\u00e1nik attended the grammar schools of Pozsony (at that time it was a Hungarian and German town) and Sopron (Hungary), and he passed his final exams in the Evangelic Grammar School of Szarvas (Hungary).@He learned at the University of Prague, where his philosophy teacher was Masaryk, who influenced him with his idea of the Czech and Slovak unification. In Prague he started to write untruthful articles in newspapers about the oppression of the Slovaks by the Hungarians. After the breaking of the First World War in 1914, he betrayed his homeland, joined the French Foreign Legion and became a fighter pilot. In 1916 the Czechoslovak National Council was formed in Paris, and Masaryk became its president. They organized the Czechoslovak Legion from Czech and Slovak deserters. Its main purpose was to occupy Bohemia and northern Hungary after the defeat of the Central Powers. In November 1, 1918 the Czechoslovak Legion started the invasion of northern Hungary under the command of Italian officers. In January, 1919 Pozsony was also occupied. They invaded large areas with Hungarian majority as well, and the Slovaks formed only less then 50 percent of the population of the occupied territory. In May, 1919 Stef\u00e1nik was travelling by plane from Udine to Pozsony but his plane crashed during landing. All the passengers died. There were several theories.@The Czech Masaryk and Bene\u0161 wanted to a suppress the Slovaks in the Czechoslovak state that was to be created from the very beginning, thus they had a serious disagreement with Stef\u00e1nik.@According to the reports Stef\u00e1nik was travelling on an Italian plane, which was taken as a Hungarian plane because of its flag of green-white-red colors, and was shot down by the Czechoslovak soldiers. But according to the Slovak nationalist politician Andrej Hlinka, the plane landed, but Stef\u00e1nik was shot at the command of Bene\u0161 as soon as he got out of the plane."},{"sightId":361,"townId":18,"active":1,"name_LO":"Matersk\u00e1 \u0161kola Evanjelick\u00e1 Cirkevn\u00e1","address":"Zelen\u00e9ho stromu 1101\/14, 048 01 Ro\u017e\u0148ava","mapdata":"1|476|969","gps_lat":"48.6603010000","gps_long":"20.5337230000","religion":3,"oldtype":"74","newtype":"74","homepage":"https:\/\/www.rvecms.com\/","openinghours":"","muemlekemlink":"","csemadoklink":"\r","picture":"\u003Ca title=\u0022Ladislav Luppa \/ CC BY-SA (https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-sa\/4.0)\u0022 href=\u0022https:\/\/commons.wikimedia.org\/wiki\/File:Ro%C5%BE%C5%88ava_-_Z%C3%A1kladn%C3%A1_%C5%A1kola,_ul._Zelen%C3%A9ho_stromu_14.jpg\u0022\u003E\u003Cimg width=\u0022256\u0022 alt=\u0022Ro\u017e\u0148ava - Z\u00e1kladn\u00e1 \u0161kola, ul.
