Stability of the bedrock of castle building for geotourism purposes

The geological structure of the Slovak Republic is very complex and varied. This fact in the course of centuries has had an impact on the castle buildings built here. The subsoil of these structures has different petrographic composition, tectonic disturbances and other geological complexities that threaten the stability of these structures and endanger the objects in their surroundings. In recent years, these structures have begun to receive deserved attention. In the past, the problems of severely disturbed blocks in the subsoil were mainly addressed and had to be rehabilitated for these reasons. These were mainly buildings whose subsoil is built with carbonate rocks. A perfect example of a long-term solution to these complex problems is also the Strecno Castle. A lot of effort and money has already been devoted to solving the stability of the bedrock, which also adversely affects the stability of the castle. However, the extensive set of works that have been carried out here over a long period of time have not brought a complete solution to the problems that occur here. For this reason, continuous work is being carried out here under the guidance of experts to eliminate the effects of erosion of the bedrock in particular. In the present work, the activities and measures that have been implemented here in stages up to the present are briefly described chronologically.
