Summary/Abstract: Viticulture represents the oldest specialized agricultural activity in Slovakia. The studied region was a specialized area from the 13th century. To a large extent, it represented the main occupation of the population, and was also called the urban type of viticulture. The impact of viticulture is evident in the region to the present day; the vineyard landscape is the Genius loci of the region. At present, viticulture is an important source of additional employment, entrepreneurial activities, as well as a cultural potential of the region. Therefore, the subject of our interest is the regional and community level of cultural heritage and the cultural potential of the studied area. We want to highlight the importance, persistence and revitalization of the viticulture tradition in the individual vineyard areas, specific activities, events, wine roads, local expressions as well as small sacral constructions in the region.
