Vavrišovo is a village and municipality in the Liptovský Mikuláš District in the Žilina Region of northern Slovakia.

History

The village was first mentioned in historical records in the year 1231.

During the late 17th century resistance developed among the nobility and serfs against the Habsburg government, especially after the Bratislava Diet in 1687, which passed measures that limited professional interests and privileges of the nobility. General hatred resulted in Rákóczi's War of Independence, an uprising led by Francis II Rákóczi.

In 1704, Rákoczi's rebel band (Kuruc) entered Slovakia. The village of Vavrišovo Kokava was burned during the ensuing war. In 1708, the Kuruc army suffered defeat at the Battle of Trencin, and this was a turning point in the war. The locality was involved in the Liptov campaign of August 1709. One of the last battles of the rebellion took place around the village of Vavrišovo.
