Detvianska Huta (Mikulášova Huta, 1880 Mikulássowá) is a village and municipality in Detva District, in the Banská Bystrica Region of central Slovakia.

History

It arose in the late 18th century by a merge of villages Komárno and Brakovica and a glass works settlement (Detvianska Huta literally means "Detva (Glass) Works"). Glass works stopped its production at the end of 19th century and from 1920 the village bears its present name.
