Zemiansky Vrbovok: Treasure, Church and Preserved Villagescape

The treasure of Zemiansky Vrbovok is an archaeological record of settlement in the municipality’s territory in the 7th century. The farmer Ján Štimel found it on 7 May 1937 while levelling a slope. The treasure comprises several dozen silver pieces of jewellery, coins, vessels and various damaged objects.

Culture

The Evangelical church in Zemiansky Vrbovok is located on a slope south of the village. It is a single-nave Neoclassical building with a semicircular apse and an attached tower dating from 1923. The interior has a flat ceiling. Its furnishings include the altarpiece “Jesus Christ”, created by Ľ. Schramek in 1923. There is also a memorial plaque to Ondrej Plachý on the Evangelical church building.

Ondrej Plachý was born in Zemiansky Vrbovok and is considered one of the important representatives of the first phase of the Enlightenment. His name is associated with the church building on which the memorial plaque is located.
