Slivenec
Slivenec is a cadastral area and a part of the municipal district of Prague 5 in the Czech Republic. It is located southwest of the city center.
Slivenec is primarily a residential area with a mix of apartment buildings and family houses. It retains a more suburban or village-like character compared to the more densely populated parts of Prague.
Historically, Slivenec was an independent village that was later incorporated into Prague. Evidence of its past can be found in the local architecture and the overall atmosphere of the area.
Important landmarks and features of Slivenec include the Church of Saint Nicholas (Kostel svatého Mikuláše), a significant historical monument, and the Slivenec Limestone Quarry, which showcases the area's geological history and contributes to the region's industrial past. This quarry is related to the broader Prague Basin geology known for its fossil finds.
Access to Slivenec is provided by public transportation, including bus lines connecting it to other parts of Prague.
Slivenec offers a blend of residential living with proximity to both the natural environment (including forests and recreational areas) and the amenities of a major European city.
