The first reference of Dolna Micina dates from 1402.
It suposes that the village was created by extending the original village of Micina in
the early 14th century. The historical path connecting the town of Banska Bystrica and
Podpolanie goes through Dolna Micina. The village belonged to two wealthy
families - Beniczkovci and Badinyovci - in the times of feudalism.
There is a crossroad in the southern part of the village. The right road leads to
Zvolen (through Lukavica, Velka Luka and Sliac) and
left road goes to Cerin (and further to Zvolen,
Dubravica and villages in the Banska Bystrica
region).
Points of interest, remarkables and rarities
