    The manor house Moravany nad Váhom
    This originally medieval structure acquired its appearance as we know it now after the 16th century reconstruction. In the English park of the manor house statues by artists from all over the world are exhibited. The manor serves as the Home of Slovak Artists. The village Moravany is also an important archaeological site with the remains of the Palaeolithic settlement of mammoth hunters. The little statue is now deposited in the collections exhibited at the Castle of Bratislava.
  • Slovak Pisa - Vrbové
    Vbové is situated to the northwest of the spa town Piešťany. The most interesting monuments is the Bell Tower. The project was carried out by Master Mason Jozef Verner of Čachtice who completed the work in 1835. On 28th October 1930, after long-lasting rains, the tower suddenly inclined. That was caused by the soaking of the soil under the tower and relatively narrow foundations of the construction. Later it was stated that the inclination made 7075 cm. In 1997, an expert measurement discovered that the tower was inclined from a vertical axis by 98 cm to the southwest. The handicap of the tower turned to a certain advantage – it became a tourist attraction due to which Vrbové is also called Slovak Pisa.
