Why is the apartment called „U Zemänov“?
Zemän means Yeoman
The village Strelníky has many residents with the same surname “Majer” (Farmstead, Grange). They are about 80%. To distinguish individual citizens, they use to give them nicknames (sins). The previous owner of the house had a lot of lands and therefore had a sin “Zemän” (Yeoman). The house in which the apartment is located in the village is therefore called “U Zemänov” (by Yeoman).
