Zdobene pieskovcove nahrobne kamene su charakteristicke pre
stare evanjelicke cintoriny obci severozapadnej casti historickeho
Novohradu. V tejto podobe vznikali priblizne v rozmedzi rokov
1870-1930. Nie je celkom jasne, ci ich celkovy tvar bol stylizaciou
ludskej postavy, alebo predstavovali akesi male oltariky. Vyzdobene
su roznymi motivmi, od ludskych postav, cez zivocichy, az po rozne
ornamenty inspirovane kvetmi a prirodou. Niektore motivy su
dotvorene farbou - ozivenim sivosti kamena. Nahrobniky su casto
doplnene textom, priblizujucim zivot alebo skon pochovaneho
cloveka.
V roku 2010 bol obnoveny stary cintorin v Hornom Tisovniku. V
ramci uprav boli na niektorych nahrobnikoch obnovene farby, u inych
stary kamenny povrch stale dycha historiou. V areali je viacero
informacnych tabul, a dokonca aj dve improvizovane knihy, s
mnozstvom informacii o nahrobnikoch a ich vztahu ku kulture nasich
predkov. Podobne dielka su hojne zastupene aj na starych
cintorinoch okolitych obci.

The decorated sandstone gravestones are characteristic for old
Lutheran graveyards of the northwestern historical Novohrad
(Nograd) region. In this form, they were being created between the
years 1870 and 1930. It is not clear if their shape symbolized the
human figure, or they constituted some small altars. The decoration
consists of various motifs, ranging from human figures, animals, to
ornaments inspired by flowers and nature. Some motifs are vivified
by colorful painting. The gravestones often comprise text,
describing the life or death of the buried person.
In 2010, the old cemetery at Horny Tisovnik was restored. Some
gravestones got new paint, and the whole areal is equipped with
information tables, and also two improvised books containing
detailed information about the gravestones and their relation to
the culture of our ancestors. Unfortunately, only in Slovak
language. A lot of similar works of art can also be found at the
old cemeteries of the neighboring villages.
