The children's town in Trenčín was supposed to be a unique place for raising abandoned children, a kind of alternative to classic children's homes. In the so-called nests, real families with their two or three children took care of another twelve children who lived with them until adulthood. In 2005, however, this system of education ran into moral wear, as there was a lack of families willing to perform this demanding work under the given conditions. The design was created in 1965, construction began three years later and was completed in 1974. Originally, five similar children's towns were planned in Czechoslovakia, but in the end, due to a lack of funds, only one was created, namely in Trenčín - Zlatovci.

In addition to the new way of care, it also stood out architecturally, while experts still admire its concept. "It is a Finnish model of living in a wide embrace of greenery. The houses have their own atriums, paddocks and a huge common square. The individual pavilions are relatively low, which discourages excessive walking on the stairs. On the ground floor was the living room with living space for the parents, and on the first floor the children had their own rooms and sanitary facilities," Július Bruna, an architect and amateur tour guide, describes the basic architectural attributes of the town.

In the children's town you will also find many works of art. According to Bruno, the incorporation of art into architecture was a condition of Title 5 that a certain amount of the total investment be used for visual arts. In this case, the author chose to collaborate with the team from the College of Fine Arts. Together they worked on the interior and exterior. "There was a series of works that created a kind of orientation map for children, so that they know that one lives with the "mouse", the other with the "fox", the other with "Jánošík". Ignác Bizmayer, a popular author at the time, created sixteen such signs, beautiful reliefs. Since ceramics have a hard time in our weather conditions, his works have already succumbed to the ravages of time. That's why the children's town itself came up with the initiative to find a solution to repair these reliefs or replace them with replicas." According to Bruno, there was a threat that the area of the town would be divided into parcels and its fate would be unclear. However, thanks to the efforts of Braň Ladický, who also approached them as architects, they created a supporting position for the monument office and the entire site was saved. "This case is unique in that for the first time within Czechoslovakia, specifically in Slovakia, an area of modern architecture has been declared a cultural monument. It means that even things that were created in the middle of the 20th century can be as valuable as, for example, the ruins of a castle," explains Július Bruna, emphasizing that people in their municipalities should urge the rescue of objects that are forgotten, neglected or less close to the heart only because they are technical monuments. The area of the children's town in Trenčín was declared a cultural monument in 2017.
