Together, we managed to peel the bark off the stakes along the entire route of the fence, install insulators on them and stretch the wires. We also leveled the ground under the future shelter for animals and cleaned its surroundings and part of the nearby cherry orchard from shrubs. Thanks to this voluntary action, the historic Molp\u00edr hillfort will soon be revived by a herd of goats, which a local farmer secured for this purpose. Initially, 15 animals will graze here on approximately two hectares of pasture. It will be gradually expanded by additional hectares of rare area owned by the municipality of Smolenice.\r\n\r\nMolp\u00edr hillfort was built by our ancestors more than three thousand years ago. It reached its greatest growth in the 7th century BC, when up to 800 people probably lived here. They mainly engaged in handicrafts, but they certainly also raised farm animals here in those days. Although the castle was destroyed in the following century, people used its premises until the recent past, primarily as pastures.\r\n\r\n\n\t\t\t
