Transcription

Etymology

The name is derived from a Slovak word čičman (a lumberjack who makes a noise while working).[6]

History

The first preserved reference to the village dates from 1272 (Cziczman). After a great fire in 1921, the village was restored to its original appearance with generous contributions by the state. Until the mid-20th century, the village was a centre of sheep raising.

Geography

The municipality lies at an altitude of 655 metres (2,149 feet) and covers an area of 25.611 square kilometres (9.888 sq mi). It has a population of about 204 people.

Culture

Timbered houses with ridge roofs, galleries and pointed or linear wall decorations have been preserved in Čičmany. Of particular interest are the very specific white patterns which are painted on the exterior walls of the houses to decorate them. The local folk music, special folk costumes and folk dances of the village have been preserved as well.

Genealogical resources

The records for genealogical research are available at the state archive "Statny Archiv in Bytca, Slovakia"
