Probably at that time, the German Hermann, who became a schoolmaster in the territory of today's Hermanovce, probably came to the territory of Upper Hungary. An interesting fact about Hermanovce is that for many centuries it was actually two villages, Upper and Lower Hermanovce - later called \u0160em\u0161ey Hermanovce and Stankay Hermanovce. One part belonged to the landowners from \u0160ebe\u0161 (since 1372) the other from \u0160em\u0161e (since 1426). Both villages were separated by the Hermanka stream. The village is said to have had two richtars and two cemeteries. However, there was a common church. Historical sources show that Hermanovce changed hands several times - the families of Chirke, Synka or Sinka, Sebessy, \u0160em\u0161ey, Bertoty, Forgach, Usz, Sztankay, R\u00e9vesz changed hands.

The story of Franciscus P\u00e9chy, who was an imperial commissioner and ruled over the surrounding villages, is recorded as a story of great love. When Franciscus asked for the hand of the daughter of the landowner of Bardejov, Barbora Bereczsk\u00e1, he was told that she would be happy to come, but let him build her a new manor house on the hill. The wish was fulfilled for the beloved Barbora and she repaid her husband and the village by having a beautiful church built opposite the manor house with a high altar from the school of Master Paul. In 1818 she also had a mausoleum built on six stone pillars with a stone dome in front of the main entrance to the church. The two coffins of Franciscus P\u00e9chy and his wife Barbara can still be found under the mausoleum. The manor house used to include a three-hectare English park<strong>,\u00a0<\/strong>lord's court, distillery, vast forests and arable lands. The owner had a Hunting House, a tennis court and a generous natural swimming pool by the stream built on the grounds for the family.
