History of Bansk\u00e1 Bystrica<\/h2>\n
\n

Bystrica settlement became more and more important due to mineral resources and in 1255 the Charter of Belo IV., king of Hungary, conferred city status on Bystrica and granted extensive privileges to the community. The 15th and 16th centuries are considered to be a \u201cgolden age\u201d in the history of Bansk\u00e1 Bystrica. It was the time, when the Thurzo-Fugger Copper Company successfully operated here and Bystrica got an attribute \u201cCopper city\u201d. Historic centre of Bansk\u00e1 Bystrica consists of many architectural gems from that period. The modern history of the city is connected first of all with Slovak National Uprising in 1944 and commemorative monuments Slovak National Uprising Memorial and Museum.<\/p>\n
