Ružomberok, Town and administrative center in northern Slovakia.
Ružomberok is a town in the Žilina Region in northern Slovakia, situated where the Váh and Revúca rivers meet. The Low Tatras and Veľká Fatra mountains rise around the settlement, shaping the surrounding landscape.
The town received formal status in 1340 when King Charles I of Hungary granted it municipal rights. This recognition allowed different groups of settlers to coexist within a single legal framework.
The Roman Catholic Church of Saint Andrew shows layers of architectural styles that developed over several centuries. Walking through the town, visitors can see how different periods left their mark on the building's structure and details.
The town sits on the Košice-Oderberg railway line, which connects well to various regional and wider destinations. This makes it easy to reach other places across the area.
The women's basketball team here has won multiple national titles and achieved success in European competitions since its founding. This sporting achievement has become a source of local pride.
