Svätý kríž - the wooden articled Evangelical church
The central attraction in this village is the protestant wooden articular church which was built formerly in the village of Paludza by master Jozef Lang (1774). During the construction of the dam at Liptovska Mara (1974-1892) the church was removed and relocated to its present site. Articular churches were the first officialy approved protestant sacred buildings in the Liptov region. They had to be located outside of the borders of the village and had no Belfry or iron and metal parts. The wooden Belfry of this church was added in 1781 after the "Declaration of Tolerance" by King Joseph the 2nd.
