Liptovský Michal (until 1955 in Slovak "Liptovský Svätý Michal"; Hungarian Szentmihály ) is a municipality in Okres Ružomberok within Žilinský kraj in northern Slovakia with 308 inhabitants (as of December 31, 2019).
geography
The community is located in the Liptovská kotlina basin , a subunit of the Podtatranská kotlina at the mouth of the Ľupčianka brook in the Váh (across the Bešeňová reservoir ). The center of the village lies at an altitude of 526 m nm and is eleven kilometers from Ružomberok .
Neighboring municipalities are Bešeňová in the north, Vlachy in the east, Partizánska Ľupča in the south and Ivachnová in the west.
history
The place arose in the 13th century in the area of the village Ľupča and was first mentioned in writing in 1331 as Ecclesia S. Michaelis , then in 1335 as Mysalfalva . The village belonged to the parish in the neighboring Liptovská Teplá , in the 18th century the Rády family from Ivachnová. In the 17th and 18th centuries there was a paper mill or iron hammer here. In 1828 there were 16 houses and 134 inhabitants.
Until 1918, the place in Liptov County belonged to the Kingdom of Hungary and then came to Czechoslovakia or now Slovakia. In 1924 it was affiliated with the Ivachnová community, but became independent again in 1955, this time without the attribute "svätý" (= holy), which was undesirable in communist Czechoslovakia.
