Poprad, Administrative town at the base of High Tatra Mountains, Slovakia
The city of Poprad sits at an elevation of 672 meters above sea level, covering 63 square kilometers of northern Slovakia's territory.
The initial documentation of Poprad dates to March 1256, when Slavic inhabitants occupied the area before German colonists arrived following Mongol invasions.
The St. Giles Square forms the nucleus of Poprad's historical center, featuring numerous buildings from the 18th and 19th centuries.
Poprad-Tatry Airport, the highest-situated airport in Central Europe, connects the region with multiple European destinations through regular flights.
Between 1412 and 1770, the Kingdom of Hungary transferred Poprad to Polish control, resulting in substantial Polish influences on local development.
