Teplička nad Hornádom - The village is situated on a meadow hill on
the right side of the river Hornád, southeast from Spišská
Nová Ves. The village was founded by Batys, a relative of the Mariassy
family from Markušovce. He came with a group of Ruthenians from Nowý
Targ in 1270 and founded the villages of Teplička nad Hornádom, Závadka
and Poráč. The name of the village comes from a Russian expression for
warm water that does not freeze even in winter "Thoplica". The first
written reference about the village is from the year 1345, where it is
mentioned as "Villa Thoplica". The local population consisted mostly
of miners.
In the village there is an originally gothic Roman-Catholic
church from the 14-th century (it was rebuilt in the baroque style in 1775
and enlarged by two side towers in 1906).
