Liptovská Teplička is a large village and municipality in Poprad District in the Prešov Region of northern Slovakia.
The municipality lies at an elevation of 919 metres (3,015 ft) and covers an area of 98.69 km2 (38.10 mi2). It has a population of about 2270 people.
In
historical records the village was first mentioned in 1634.
Settled probably before 1612 when the village
Pohorelá (with that it shares the origins) was first mentioned in written records. The name Teplička (or its Hungarian transcript Teplicska) used till around 1920 when the adjective Liptovská (related to the
Liptov region) had been added to distinguish it from other villages with the same name in Slovakia. A new road connecting the village with
Poprad was built after
World War II, and in the subsequent change of administrative divisions in 1960, the village has been integrated to the
Poprad District of the then
Eastern-Slovakian region, since 1996
Prešov Region. (The traditional road connecting the village with the historical
Liptov region remains now inaccessible for motor cars.)
The name Teplička comes from Teplica, a small creek flowing through the village that does not freeze even in the coldest winters (teplý means 'warm' in Slovak).
