Museum of aristocratic carriages and sleighs

Museum & Gallery

Let yourself be transported to the last century, when cars were not used on the roads but luxury cats of rich nobles.

The Museum of Noble Carriages and Sleighs is a unique and largest collection of carriages and sleighs in Slovakia. The museum began writing its history on May 1, 2008. The collection is a long-term process of collecting and precise renovation. It is located in the village of Oravský Podzámok, directly below the Orava Castle. In our museum you can see 21 exclusive exhibits in the original, but mainly renovated condition. The precise quality of our exhibits will delight you and you will be carried away by the magic of the last century, when luxury Landauers and Landaulets, elegant Mylords for men and Victoria for ladies were chasing our way. There are discreet city coupes, hunting carriages and, of course, comfortable sledges for snowy winters. Enter the past and drift through imagination and imagination. For us, the rule once to see them is heard more than a hundred times. The whole exhibition is supplemented by interesting accompanying texts.

We believe that a visit to our museum will be an enrichment and expansion of your knowledge.

Looking forward to your visit.
