Scotland

Scotland is a former hamlet near Hurbanova. Nowadays only a ruin of a castle still stands and there is a tourist shop. Hurbanova has been built together with this town, which was situated 2 kilometers away from it. It was a less wealthy place with a population of about 40 people of which most where from Scots or Irish origin. Scotland was left in 1904 for unknown reason. One possible reason is that the hamlet was not protected from the floods of a nearby river. Scotland had 14 houses, 36 stables, an unfinished castle of someone called McLeid, a well, a monastery and a chapel.
