Welcome to Vyšný Kubin. Right now, you are standing in front of a place that bears silent witness to past times. In front of you is the Kubinyi manor house, along with the park. At first glance of this area, you can feel the peace and a certain melancholy, which brings to the space a combination of historical construction and surrounding greenery. It is a place where architecture meets nature and where you can remember for a moment with today's fast rhythm of the world and immerse yourself in the atmosphere of the past. Although the exact chronology of the creation of this object is not detailed in the available records, the manor house is a typical example of noble settlements, which in our areas served not only as a breeding grounds, but also as the centres of administration and social life of local families. These buildings were built to demonstrate the status and influence of their owners, trying harmoniously to fit into the country. Kubínyi Castle is no exception and its presence in the locality Vyšný Kubín reminds of the period when similar settlements were at the heart of regional development. Now, when you see this object, I recommend paying attention to the overall distribution of the building and its relationship with the surrounding park. Look at the facade and see how the building fits into space. Although we do not know exactly who the architects who designed this project is to see an effort to create a balanced whole. Follow the lines of the building and consider how many generations of people have passed through this door and what conversations have been heard in these corridors. Note how the park surrounds the manor house and creates a natural frame that protects the building from the noise of the city and creates an intimate atmosphere. Let us now consider the people who were immersed in this place. Although the names of the historical personalities directly connected to the manor house are not at this moment documented, the very name Kubínyi manor house refers us to the gender tradition and owners who founded their seat here. Imagine living in a house like this centuries ago. The life of a noble family was mixed up with responsibilities towards the county, managing property and maintaining social contacts. Every room, every hallway and every corner of the park had its destination and its secret. It is precisely in this unknownness of some details, however, that there is a certain charm. Each of us can give his own idea of how life was going here. Maybe there were elegant meetings, maybe there were important decisions that affected the fates of many people around. The mystery of accurate data and names gives this place a certain mystic. It's like an open book missing some pages, but the whole story is still readable from the atmosphere that exists. Now I want to invite you to slowly move deeper into the area. Feel the quietness of the park and watch the light intersect through the leaves of the trees and hit the walls of the manor house. This contrast between the strength of the walls and the fragility of nature is one of the most powerful experiences this place offers you. Let yourself be guided by your feelings and try to imagine what this park looked like in the time of its greatest glory when its alleys were perfectly groomed and served stretched promenades in the morning. The Kubínyi mansion is an example of how history persists even if we do not know everything about it. All you have to do is stop, look and listen. It is a place of reflection and peace that teaches us to respect the passing of time. As you walk around, take note of the details that may have escaped at first sight and give yourself a moment of silence that this area naturally offers. Finally, I would like to thank you for your attention. I believe that a visit to this historic area in Vyšný Kubín has brought you a feeling of well-being and allowed you to escape from everyday rush for a while. You can now explore the beauty of the Žilina region further in your leisure time and discover other gems of our common history. We wish you a pleasant day and a pleasant continuation in your journey.

Seasonal recommendations
Spring around Kubínyiovský mansion in Vyšný Kubín brings awakening of nature and longer days. Sun rays reveal the details of the facade. The surrounding park is green and morning mist adds a peaceful atmosphere. For the spring visit we recommend strong, non-promoting shoes, because grassy areas and trails are wet after melting snow and rain. Wear layered clothing and jacket, as the weather in Orava is variable. They are suitable for photo shoots in the morning, when light highlights greenery.
Summer months bring sunny days and lush vegetation in an adjacent park where old trees provide shade. Green crowns create shadow games on the walls of the manor house. In the main summer season we recommend light breathable clothing, sunglasses and mouth cover, because the midday sun in Orava is intense. The best time to visit the area is early in the morning or evening when temperatures are more pleasant.
Autumn changes the park around the mansion to yellow, orange and red shades. The low sun creates an atmosphere suitable for walks. Fallen leaves and morning mist over Orava form a scenery typical for this period. Take a warm jacket, scarf, and warm shoes for autumn wandering. The best time to observe autumn colors is around noon, when daylight illuminates treetops around the monument.
The winter will cover the Kubínyi mansion and the adjacent park in the snow. Morning frosts and snowmen create a quiet scenery with few visitors. In bright days, the surrounding hills of Orava are visible above the snowy trees. In winter, you need warm clothes, winter shoes with non-slip soles, a cap, and gloves, as temperatures in this area fall far below freezing. For a short walk around the area it is appropriate to early afternoon when bright light is available.
