Bench in Necpaloch

Bench in Necpaloch. A nice resting place with a bench is created in the centre of the village. Necpaly is the seat of MEDUĽKA I. The queen bee from here rules the Turčianske kingdom of bees and clear water. In the Necpala valley there is the Necpala spring - an underground spring of extremely good quality and tasty drinking water. The spring is one of the most abundant in Central Europe. The water is of such high quality that it is suitable for infants. Medulka I. is helped in her reign by her advisors Pramienok the gnome and Čľupko the waterman from the Necpalský brook. The Goblin takes care of all the springs and wells, the Waterman is in charge of the streams and rivers in the kingdom. Apart from them, there are many fairy-tale creatures living here, which are described in the booklet Škriatok Pramienok z Turčianská ogródka (The Spring Goblin from Turčianska Garden). You can meet many of them live during the Turčianska Honey and Water Festival. This great feast of water, bees and the natural wealth of Turiec is held in Necpalo every year at the end of June. In addition to good fun and education for the whole family, visitors can buy various types of honey directly from the master beekeepers. Honey tasting is also popular. A big attraction during the event is the Necpala grinder. Throughout the year, it is materialized by a brightly coloured mill wheel in the embankment near the municipal office. On the resting place with a bench there are colourful statues of the gnome Pramienek and the waterman Čľupek. There are also copies of the old hives used by our ancestors to keep bees. Along the road, just beside the bench of the Turčianska kingdom of bees and clear water, the Turčianska cyclemagistrála leads. Cyclists are served by an electric bike charger, which is installed here. The resting place also includes a gazebo with additional benches and a children's playground with various play elements and a book booth.
