Levoca, a town surrounded by walls

Levoca 1

Tha walls of Levoca
Levoca is often referred as the ‘jewel of the Spis crown’. Originating in the 13th century, Levoca was settled and built up by German colonists and dislocated Slavic peasants. The town soon became prosperous thanks to its convenient location on key trade routes, eventually blossoming into the most important trading.

Now it's a fine town to be, surrounded bij walls, 07-07-2006.

 We loved Levoca too but when we were there many of the houses looked neglected. Your accommodation sounds great, we might use it someday. We visited yet another restaurant and thought it was super too.

 This unknown city is really very charming. I stopped there twice as for now and liked it a lot.

 Nice pictures of Levoca. Did you make it to the church on the hill?
