Staging post on the Magna Via

Furmanská krčma pri Veľkej ceste

In the 18th century, the famous imperial and royal post and trade route Magna Via (the Great Road) passed through Kozelník.

Right in the village stood an important stagecoach and staging post, “Furmanská krčma” (Carters’ Inn), where weary carters rested and changed horses before the steep mountain climb towards Banská Štiavnica.

The imposing historic building with its typical architecture (house No. 50) still stands in the village today. You’ll find it right on the main road I/51, on the right-hand side as you drive towards Banská Štiavnica.
