Hotels in Kleňany: Village Museum, Baroque Church and Hrušovská Route

Kleňany can be discovered through several specific places and features: a village museum with ethnographic material, historic church art, geological traces in the cellars of Mikó, andesite formations and the Hrušovská Route. Together, these stops paint a multifaceted picture of Kleňany: sacred buildings, places of remembrance, viticulture and the landscape are among the village’s defining themes.

Culture

On the village square in Kleňany stands a group of figures depicting Saint Anne and the young Virgin Mary, erected in 2005. The Kleňany Village Museum was also founded in 2005 and holds a wealth of ethnographic material. A wooden nativity scene is set up in its courtyard every year. The village museum is intended to be open for visits at any time; visits must be announced in advance at the municipal office.

The religious heritage of Kleňany also includes the restored Chapel of Saint Urban. At its centre hangs a painting of the patron saint of viticulture and winemaking. This relatively large, single-room chapel stands above Kleňany, on the edge of the vineyards. Another prominent building is the Church of All Saints, a Baroque church dating from the late 17th century that was rebuilt in 1789. The church contains a Rococo wooden statue of the Madonna from the second half of the 18th century. Near the chancel are Baroque wooden statues of the four Evangelists. In the Kleňany cemetery, a monument erected in 1993 commemorates those who fell in the First and Second World Wars.

Landscape

Special traces can also be found beneath the surface. In the cellars dug into the ground in the Mikó area of Kleňany, fossilised remains of seashells and snails can be seen. Andesite formations are located in the northern part of the cadastral area of Kleňany.

From the hills near Úľany, views extend across the Ipeľ Basin to the Börzsöny, Cserhát and Mátra mountains. From the same viewpoint, the view also reaches the southern foothills of the Krupina Upland and its oak forests. The landscape therefore stretches from basin areas to wooded uplands and several mountain ranges.

Hrušovská Route

The Hrušovská Route runs through Kleňany between Sečianky and Ipeľské Úľany. From Kleňany, the route continues 3.2 km to Ipeľské Úľany. A Kleňany viewpoint is designated as one of the viewpoints along the Hrušovská Route. The route thus creates a clearly named connection between Kleňany and Ipeľské Úľany while also passing through a place with cultural and historical as well as landscape-related points of interest.
