Nová Bošáca (Slovak pronunciation: [ˈnɔʋaː ˈbɔʂaːtsa]; Hungarian: Újbosác) is a village and municipality in Nové Mesto nad Váhom District in the Trenčín Region of western Slovakia.

History

[edit]

In historical records the village was first mentioned in 1950.

The territory of today's Nová Bošáca was in the past a part of the Trenčian capital. In the 18th century, Bošácke kopanice (the current village of Nová Bošáca) was one of the largest dispersed settlements in this area. According to regionalization, the village belongs to the Central Coast region. According to the Ethnographic Atlas of Slovakia, Nová Bošáca is located in the western Slovak lowland area with mountainous elements. Nová Bošáca is part of the Bošáčka Microregion and represents a type of mining settlement. The Bošácka valley forms a micro-region that is interesting both from a cultural and historical point of view, as well as from an ethnographic and naturalistic point of view. It is therefore an attractive place for researchers and tourists. The settlement of this territory is gradually documented by finds from the Stone Age to the early Middle Ages. Before the establishment of independent Czechoslovakia in 1918, the territory of Nová Bošáca was part of Trencsén County within the Kingdom of Hungary. From 1939 to 1945, it was part of the Slovak Republic.
