Bijacovce (Hungarian: Szepesmindszent; German Biazowitz/Betendorf) is a village and municipality in Levoča District in the Prešov Region of central-eastern Slovakia. The village is along the famous Gothic Route and the church dates from the 13th century. The church is gothic with a rotunda to match. There is also a manor house from the 18th century in Bijacovce. The manor house was built between 1780 and 1785 by the Csaky family. The last renovation of the manor house was in 1955. However, it currently is off limits to the public because it was turned into a school. However, next to the manor house, there is a park with deer roaming around it.
