Stupava (German: Stampfen; Hungarian: Stomfa) is a town in western Slovakia. It is situated in the Malacky District, Bratislava Region.

Etymology

[edit]

The name is derived from Proto-Slavic stǫpa (Slovak: stupa) - a wooden bowl carved from a tree trunk, but also the name of various crushing and pressing tools.[4]

Geography

[edit]

The municipality lies at an altitude of 178 metres (584 ft)[3] and covers an area of 67.54 km2 (26.08 sq mi) (2024).[5]

The town is located in the Záhorie lowland, under the Little Carpathians, around 15 km (9 mi) north of Bratislava at an altitude of 182 metres. It has a land area of 67.54 km2 (26 sq mi).[6] Apart from the core part of the city, Mást (German: Maaßt, Hungarian: Mászt), located just south of the core part of the city, is another part of Stupava. It has been initially a separate village with ethnic Croatian majority, which was formally annexed by Stupava in 1953.[7]

History

[edit]

Traces of habitation go back to the Bronze Age, and the first known inhabitants were the Celts. The Romans built a military station as a part of the near Limes Romanus on the Danube. The first written mention about the town was in 1269 in a document of the King Béla IV under name Ztumpa. In the second half of the 13th century the now-ruined Pajštún Castle in the Little Carpathians was built. It was developing mainly as an agricultural and trading settlement. The name of the town comes from the pressing mills called stupa on the Stupavský potok brook, which were used for extracting oil from flax and hemp.
