Karpatia – Slovak bryndza factory of the Stein brothers / Steins’ first liqueur factory

Bryndza cheese of Liptov (sheep cheese product) was regarded to be the best near and far and even healing according to old literature. It was shipped to customers mainly to Budapest and Vienna. Not only bryndza but also other delicacies were exported abroad, e.g. Aurel Stodola, a world-famous inventor and the father of steam turbines had smoked cheese products sent even to Zurich. His family owned one of the biggest tanner companies in Mikuláš. In the first half of the 20th century, bryndza and cheese were produced by several businesses in the town. Local bryndza was popular by gourmets in Hungary, Austria, Poland, Germany, but also France and America. One of the facilities, Karpatia – Bryndza factory of the Stein brothers was based in Maron´s curia on the main square. The Stein brothers would run a Liqueur factory as well. Rudolf Stein is said to have pipes installed into his upstairs flat so that he could offer liqueur to his guests anytime.

Rumanský art centre

Rumanský art centre

RUMANSKÝ ART CENTRE je súkromná galéria v Liptovskom Mikuláši, ktorá vznikla v roku 2010 hlavne za účelom prezentácie výtvarných diel bratov Ivana a Igora Rumanských, rodákov z Demänovej, ale aj iných umelcov ktorí majú vzťah k Liptovu. Zakladateťom a nositeľom myšlienky vytvorenia výstavnej siene pre svojich zosnulých bratov, je Ing. Michal Rumanský, ich najmladší brat. Založením neziskovej organizácie RUMANSKÝ ART CENTRE, n.o., ktorá je prevádzkovateľom galérie a následne samotným otvorením galérie Michal Rumanský sprítomnil Igora a Ivana v prostredí rodného Liptova, kraja, ktorý považovali za svoj domov a ktorý sa stal dôležitou inšpiráciou pre ich tvorbu. V prípade galérie RUMANSKÝ ART CENTRE bolo už od začiatku jasné, na čo bude priestor slúžiť a tak bol projektovaný aj jeho interiér. Pri projekte sa stretli investor a architekt, ktorým išlo o spoločnú vec a ostatné bolo druhoradé. O kvalitnom výsledku ich spoločného snaženia hovorí aj fakt, že interiér bol jedným z troch nominovaných na Cenu za architektúru CE.ZA.AR 2011.
