Lorinčík

Lorinčík (Hungarian: Szentlőrincke) is a borough (city ward) of Košice, Slovakia.Lorinčík is located in the Košice II district, at an altitude of roughly 302 metres (991 ft) above sea level.The first written records of Lorinčík date as far back as 1248, when the local area and settlement was known as Gord.[2] In the 18th century, Lorinčík was possibly abandoned, as it's missing from most records from the period, though it reemerges again as a settled place by 1808.The etymology of Lorinčík (derived from "Lawrence") seems to be based on the traditional use of this specific patron saint in the former village.
