ARCHAEOPARK OF SLAVIC CULTURE - FORTRESS
O.Z. ABU has created a place where history comes alive. A place where the past connects with the present. A place of rest and peace for people not only from the Hornotory region but also from the surrounding area.
The Hradisko project is unique. It combines an archaeopark in the form of a Slavic hillfort, a historical archery range, a menagerie and a small amphitheatre. The dominant feature of the Hradisko is the entrance gate of two lookout towers. The amphitheatre is used for non-commercial cultural events and workshops. It is located only 5 minutes from the centre of Lipany, in a quiet location and in close proximity to three large ponds.
The castle offers the opportunity to try shooting from historical bows, as people have known it since time immemorial. Archery was used for hunting game and fighting at a distance. Archery is also a traditional means of spiritual development in some societies. The archery range is suitable for shooting up to 50 m.
Horseback riding from Hradisko is designed for beginners in western saddles, which are safer, so they can comfortably enjoy the beauty of nature. Rides and rides are also for advanced riders. The rides are conducted in the manner of natural riding, natural communication with the horse.
The menagerie in Hradisko is a place where animals can not only look around, but also be petted, fed and cared for.
At Hradisko you will get to know the history during festivals, events and workshops. Folklore festival Dzedovizeň, fairytale festival Kocúrkovo, Festival of living history, music festival Kocúr fest.
