Discover Čeláre: Holiday Apartments, Manor Houses and the Ipeľ

Čeláre can be explored through two defining features: the Ipeľ with its canoeing route, and the heritage of nobility, the church, winegrowing and hiking trails. Between the river landscape, rolling hills and preserved or dilapidated manor-house complexes, the village presents a landscape marked by diverse historical traces.

Water and Nature

A canoeing route on the Ipeľ runs from the port in Bušince to the football pitch in Čeláry. The route is 6 km long, takes approximately 2 hours and has a difficulty rating of 4. While canoeing, visitors can enjoy views of floodplain forests and meadows, as well as observe waterfowl and fish. The northern and northeastern parts of Čeláry lie in a hilly landscape formed from Early Tertiary deposits. There are steeper slopes and acacia groves there.

Culture

The Luisézny manor house in Čeláry was built around 1770 by the noble Prónay family. Today, the preserved part of the manor house in Kirť is designated as a protected cultural monument. Also in the Kirť district of Čeláry, part of the accommodation wing of a Baroque château has been preserved; Count Keglevich used it as a hunting lodge. The manor-house complex in Kirť also includes a large English park with numerous interesting trees introduced from distant countries. A small zoological garden is also part of the complex.

The Church of St Michael the Archangel in Čeláry is a Baroque-Classical church dating from 1797. Its main altar is Neo-Rococo and features a central painting of Saint Michael from the late 18th century. Čeláry is also home to the heavily dilapidated ruins of the Prónay manor house.

Winegrowing

Historically, winegrowing was practiced in Čeláry alongside agriculture. A 19th-century wine cellar located in Čeláry bears witness to this local tradition.

Hiking Trails

One route leads over Hrozný vrch, which reaches an elevation of 281 m, and then descends to Čeláry. The “Popri Ipli” hiking route runs from Bušince via Hrozný vrch, Čeláry and Kirť, with the Keglevich family manor house, to Kováčovce.

When comparing holiday apartments in Čeláre, check the exact location, type of accommodation and occupancy on the respective offer page. Included services, individual price components, and booking and cancellation conditions may also be presented differently. As a next step, you can view and compare the offers. Also make sure that occupancy, services and costs are listed clearly and separately before booking. With several options, these points can be checked directly side by side; the specific offer page always remains decisive. It is also helpful to check whether the prices refer to the same period and occupancy, and whether any restrictions or additional conditions are stated directly alongside the relevant item. The way cost items are presented should also remain clear, so that the base price, optional services and possible additional costs are not mixed together.
