The first written mention of the village of Jakubová Voľa from 1315 says that in 1312 King Charles Róbert of Anjou gave the nobleman Rikolf a forest south of the village of Červenica, above the right bank of the Torysa River, for his military merits, among other things. Soon they began to build a village on the donated property. The village was named Jakubova Ves (Jacabfolua).
South above Jakubová Vola is a hill with a distinct plateau and with the local name Hradisko. In the past, during the post-Moravian period, there was a fortified hill fort.
Today in the village, a frequently visited tree also attracts attention. The tree is called the "Tree of Love" by the locals because of the shape in which it grows. In the shape of a heart.
Its coloring throughout the seasons is breathtaking, as is the idea of the residents to create a little piece of love for their village.
