"We are Transparent, not Transparent," says Peter Czere, mayor of Kopanice. His story and the story of his village are interesting. She could write a book about it. But the village already has a book. And not one.

The village of Priepasné is supposedly named after the word "passage". As a separate municipality it was founded only in 1957 when it separated from the neighboring village Košariská. The name of the village is closely related to the name of the village Košariská, where the sheepskin basket has been reportedly in the past, and these sheep have been slaughtered over the current territory - they have been stripped. And therefore, the Glory.

The village can come from different directions, but cars can be counted on the fingers of one hand over the day. One day in 2003, Peter Czere also "fell in love" with Priepasný. "I come from Bratislava. I made a manager for one construction company. And once I said that it was enough for cities, life in a blockhouse, and I spent my life in the village, "he said. "Comrade Farmer Martin Bagar bought a cottage in Prašník, I went a car a little further. I turned right in Košarisky to the right and it was an incredible feeling when climbing up the hill. I stopped in Priepasnom, where I met only the man and the woman who were haying. It was a poor old mayor with his wife today. He never believed me that I wanted to live seriously here. He first said they did not know about anything, but his wife kicked him in the foot and eventually recommended me to buy one cottage alone, "he added.

Exactly on August 8, 2003, he registered him for permanent residence at the municipal office. From Bratislava he became a kicker at the moment. "I always cry to myself when I mention my predecessor to the mayor. I only remember him in good. He also became a citizen after he was no longer a mayor. I'm glad we got him the Honorable Citizen Award. "

Dance wedding

When he moved to soccer, he did not even know that in a village with 370 inhabitants, where the average age is 41 years, he would just be the mayor. "We have good people here. If they were not, we will never create anything like our own Slovak village, where we all joined together. It was a wonderful experience. People were proud of their village, "the Mayor recalled in the RTVS. Just before the television cameras, he graduated from his own real wedding dress. "It was fun that my father called me after the broadcast that he congratulated me. He just did not know it was not a real wedding. But I really got married later in a similar style. We came to horses, we had it in the meadow, we called the whole village. We were at an artificially created wedding, even real, "the Mayor smiled.

In the coat of arms of the village there is a furnace that is connected to the history of the Priepasný and expresses the warmth of the home. Behind the general office under the shelter a functional bread oven according to that of the coat of arms also built. The whole village has 19 local settlements, mostly named after the inhabitants whose names in the given football predominate, or prevailed in the past. "I did not study the history of the village. I have a lot of things to talk about, we also have a chronicle where there is a lot to be heard. It always lived in music. In cooperation with the Center for Traditional Culture we also make summer music camps, "added the mayor.

To the mound through the Transparent

"Mills did not survive much. The streams are already dry, but the history of the Priepasné is back in particular with the mines. "And where to choose in Priepasnom? "Interestingly, it is always written about the mound of Milan Rastislav Štefánik that he is located between Kosarisks and Brezova pod Bradlom. At that time, the tomb was once cut from the cadastre. From the guardhouse, which is above the roundabout, to the first staircase to the mound, visitors are in the cadastral area of the village of Priepasné, "the mayor said on the computer, a cadastral map in the vicinity of the monumental cultural monument, which is visited by thousands of tourists annually. "People may think they have never been in the Transparency, and they do not even know that they had to go through our territory to get to the mound," Peter Czere smiled. The fact that the Priepasné is baptized under Bradl proves directly in the village also the monument of Milan Rastislav Štefánik, located at the municipal office. Built in 1999 on the occasion of the 80th anniversary of the death of the general and the greatness of the Slovak nation. "Even the historic path that Štefánik had taken on the last rest is in Priepasnom," the mayor added.

The village also has two well-known primates that you can hear on Regina radio. "We have seen Mr. Viliam Grusk and we have his two designs, pylons, as honors to Petruch and Kollárik. It is always the musician's birthplace with an information board. Clearly, Myjavsky folklore certainly left a significant trace, "said the first man of the village.

Traditional viprafky collected in the book

Next to the municipal office stands the house where Ms Alžbeta Krásna lives, a former teacher who knows the history of the village, her traditions and tells them about them with glowing eyes. She even wrote the publication of Víprafki - the narrative from Priepasné, collected by Alžběta Krásná, which was supplemented with a cousin, so that people could better present the traditional dialect that the people in Priepasno say. "We accepted the mayor. He was set in, the Priepasňan is already, "Elizabeth Krasn welcomed us when we visited her with the mayor of the village.

Together, we chose Batikova, where, together with husband Paul, they transformed an old parental house where the mill was and where it literally hid the treasures of the history of Naples. "There were my old parents here. Next to a standing cottage of clay brick. She was about to fall. We have preserved the oven. 150 years ago there were two hosts. The man also has two bulls. He is a trained blacksmith, and these beautiful knobs are his work, "Mrs. Krasna showed us. "Everything you see here is gathered ancient things. Rollers worked the ground with horses, poorer on cows. When they considered the grain and wanted the cows to sit quietly while they were filling the car, they gave them the muzzle to hurt it, "she said something about the farmland. She also showed the Bohemian or the form in which they made clay vessels. Or the clothes that were worn in the Priepasnom. "The mayor's wife was also dressed in these dresses," Elizabeth Krasna remarked, revealing the mysteries of her "museum," in which there are various laces, a suitcase, embroidered parchments on costumes or costumes from the inter-war period. "Interest in costumes is growing, almost impossible to get. Everybody wants them at home, "she added. The largest kingdom, however, is hiding on the floor. "Here you can see 100 dolls dressed in costumes from different endings of Slovakia. I collect them for 10 years. But I also have souvenirs from the world, for example from Japan. I go with them to the exhibitions, "she explained.

As the water splashed, it faded

There have been three mills in the past. "We were not a rich community, we belonged to the poorest. It was a difficult life, because the earth is a stony rock; we are still collecting stones from the soil, "she told Krásna. "In the time of the Rimanov in the Priepasný mlyn, he was mummering after the old siblings that lived here, such as Fogada or Závrský. When the water was low, the mill was slowly soaking with FO-GA-DA, when the water came, so it quickly became hot. That's how people perceived it, "she drew one of Mrs Krásna's stories.

The link between Stephen and Priepasn still lives. "Everyone had their representative. After the 30th year, when Bradlo was staged and celebrations were held there, with our flag of the League, our Priests went to the mound. Our people did not go there secretly, but publicly, although it was forbidden. Then it was the true patriotism we are honored with, "concluded Elizabeth Krasn's story.
