Did you know?The manor house of Lednické Rovne is the town’s oldest edifice. It dates back to the second half of the 16th century when it was most likely built by order of Štefan Telekessy, the owner of Lednica manor, in the Renaissance style. Later in the 18th century, the house was influenced by the Baroque style, and following the fashion of that time, a chapel was built inside. An impressive English landscape park was also laid out. The manor house shows signs of classicism too, such as on the richly decorated entrance door. Under the direction of the owner Jozef Schreiber, a major reconstruction took place at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. The house went through a difficult period after the World War II and was comprehensively plundered. In 1945, it was nationalised, transformed into a school and, later on, used as the town hall. Today, the manor house is owned by the RONA a. s. company. One part of the house serves as the Slovak Glass Museum, the only one of its kind in Slovakia.
