Radio Slovakia International Competition

Our friend at the Radio Listening blog posted the following:

Historic Hotels of Slovakia

Radio Slovakia International hereby starts a new competition where you can win interesting prizes including a one week stay for two in Slovakia.

In the Historic Hotels of Slovakia cycle we will introduce to you 10 hotels transformed into luxurious first class accommodation. Every first weekend of the month we will explore the nooks and crannies of Slovak castles, châteaux and other historical buildings which all have an interesting story to tell. After each round we ask you a question and the winner drawn from the correct answers receives a prize. At the end of the cycle, two lucky participants will win the main prize.

Before you decide to take part in our competition, we have to notify you about two important rules. The first rule states that the winner of the main prize pays the expenses of travelling to Slovakia and the other one is that only listeners without permanent residence in Slovakia may take part in the competition.

Our second stop is Necas’s Villa in the Northern Slovakia. Please listen carefully to the audio report at the bottom of this page on Radio Slovakia’s International Radio website.

The question for this round is: What was the original purpose of Necas’s Villa?

Please send your answers by December 1st, 2011.
