Spi\u0161sk\u00e9 mesto Levo\u010da (14 500 obyvate\u013eov) le\u017eiace na v\u00fdchode Slovenska pod Levo\u010dsk\u00fdmi vrchmi v\u010faka svojej bohatej minulosti patr\u00ed medzi turistami najnav\u0161tevovanej\u0161ie slovensk\u00e9 mest\u00e1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spi\u0161sk\u00e1 Levo\u010da sa po prv\u00fd raz spom\u00edna v listine z roku 1249 pod n\u00e1zvom Leucha. Osada prosperuj\u00faca z v\u00fdhodnej polohy na obchodnej ceste Via Magna (Ve\u013ek\u00e1 cesta) sa r\u00fdchlo rozr\u00e1stla na mesto s viacer\u00fdmi v\u00fdsadami. Za kr\u00e1tky \u010das sa Levo\u010da stala hlavn\u00fdm centrom nemeckej koloniz\u00e1cie na Spi\u0161i a v roku 1271 ju dokonca pov\u00fd\u0161ili na hlavn\u00e9 mesto Spolo\u010denstva spi\u0161sk\u00fdch Sasov. \u010eal\u0161\u00ed v\u00fdvoj v\u0161ak smeroval k oslabovaniu vplyvu spolo\u010denstva, \u010do napokon v roku 1323 viedlo k vyhl\u00e1seniu Levo\u010de za slobodn\u00e9 kr\u00e1\u013eovsk\u00e9 mesto.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Najv\u00e4\u010d\u0161ou hybnou silou rozvoja Levo\u010de bol obchod, ktor\u00fd postupne nadobudol medzin\u00e1rodn\u00fd rozmer. Levo\u010dania obchodovali s Krakovom, hansovn\u00fdmi mestami, ba aj s Ben\u00e1tkami. Levo\u010dsk\u00ed remeseln\u00edci vyr\u00e1bali nielen pre miestnu spotrebu, ale aj pre trhy a jarmoky v celom Uhorsku a Po\u013esku. Nesk\u00f4r sa Levo\u010da stala jedn\u00fdm z hlavn\u00fdch centier renesancie a humanizmu v Uhorsku.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
