Andrássy Curia in Gombasek

The Rococo Andrássy manor house from the second half of the 18th century is located in the cadastral territory of the village of Slavec in the Gombasek recreation centre.

Rococo (from French-rocaille) is an artistic style that represented a further development of Baroque at the end of the 18th century. It is therefore more appropriate to use the term Late Baroque for Central Europe.

It was declared a national cultural monument in 1975. The one-storey and basement building has a rectangular plan with a mansard roof. In the 19th century it underwent a classical modification. The central entrance has a rectangular vaulted central entrance. On the left side of the entrance is a staircase to the basement area. The internal layout divides the whole space into four rooms, which are communicatively connected to the central corridor with an alcove and an open furnace. The windows of the cloister with rococo bars are rectangular with an inwardly extending cornice and a straight cornice. In the interiors there are vaults with rich textures. The building also includes a granary. The granary is a brick building with a rectangular plan and a smooth façade. The building has a hipped roof with one gabled dormer. The Andrássy estate also included a nearby craftsman's (saffar's) house. The Andrássy family were the last owners of the manor until 1945. The monument is part of the nature trail in the Gombasek area.

Museum

After the last reconstruction of the building, a museum was established there. Visitors can see artefacts found during the six archaeological research seasons of the Pauline monastery in Gombasek and exhibits related to the iron production of the Andrássy family.
