the cage of shame is now open and you can get in! Staying in the cage was considered as disgrace for the punished and as a warning for the others. Because of this reason, the punishment was often carried out during the fairs when the whole square was full of people. Bystanders usually treated the punished quite bad – calling names, spitting and throwing rotten vegetables or even stones was quite common. The most frequent inhabitants of the cage were women who appeared in the streets of Levoča after the lamps were lit, not accompanied by men.

Levoča is a great town to visit in Eastern Slovakia. It has a great historic centre as well as intact city walls. It is a UNESCO World Heritage site. This photo shows the Basilica of St James and the Old Town Hall. The “cage of shame” punishment cage dating back to the 17th Century is seen in the photo just above the flowerbed! Definitely a very photogenic and interesting town which is well worth a visit.

My home town, my favorite view. The historic Town Hall with a characteristic renaissance tower clock is one of the most beautiful buildings of the famous royal town of Levoča. It is located right in the heart of the town next to the St. James church. Its origin dates back to the 15th century. At present, the Town Hall houses a branch of the Spiš Museum focused on the history of Levoča.
