The Canon House

The Canon House – (16 Samova) - a protected cultural site. The construction of this Empire style building in 1818 - 1921 was ordered by Bishop Kluch to serve the canon priests. The statue of Atlant (generally known as Corgoň) supporting the wall in the corner is a piece by Vavrinec Dunajský. Above the entrance, a pair of angels are holding Bishop Kluch´s coat of arms. Attached to the House is a low 17th century building, the gate of which is exactly the same as was the gate of the Zobor Monastery.
