Summary

Matej Bel's 1723 description of Spišský Hrad, part of his 'Historia Comitatus Scepusiensis,' offers a stylized yet largely accurate account of the castle's location, physical features, and history. While Bel relied heavily on Juraj Bohuš’s extensive Latin manuscript, he omitted detailed political-historical events and focused instead on concise descriptions. Though modern research has since expanded knowledge—particularly on early history and architectural phases—Bel’s work remains valuable for its historical context and preservation of key details. The study highlights how Bel selectively used Bohuš’s data, blending it with additional insights to create a more streamlined narrative.
