In 1307, in the village of Brezovi\u010dka, the Berzeviczy family built a monastery-castle (probably in the locality of Z\u00e1m\u010disko) above the road connecting Spi\u0161 and \u0160ari\u0161, which disappeared in the 14th-15th centuries. The original name of the village - Hamburg - is probably derived from it, from the German \"ham\"- outcrop, spur and \"burg\"- castle, i.e. \"Castle on the outcrop\".<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The village belonged to the Torysa manor and in 1316, when the Tory manor was divided, it belonged to Koko\u0161 (together with J\u00e1n, they were the sons of Count Rikolf, descended from the Berzeviczy family). Koko\u0161 killed the nobleman Teodor , son of Count Arnold of Spi\u0161. For the murder he was sentenced in 1307 to pay a fine of 200 marks (about 38 kg of silver), to found 6 monasteries and 4,000 mass bases for the \"soul-saving\" of the murdered Frederik. One of the monasteries was the Carthusian monastery in the then Haynburg (in the locality of Koscilek).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Berzeviczy family, who took the name of the neighbouring village as their surname, built two manor houses in Brezovi\u010dka. The upper Renaissance manor house with a granary had a large park and was built around 1620. After its reconstruction, several fragments have been preserved, as well as the park. Today it serves as a DSS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The lower manor house and the granary were built around 1700. Today it has been stripped of its architectural details by repairs and reconstructions and is currently the seat of the Municipal Office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
