What’s interesting to see in Bratislava?
The city’s main symbol is Bratislava Castle, which towers on a hill above the Danube. Its history dates back to the 13 century. During the reign of Maria Theresa the castle was rebuilt into a lavish residence, but in 1811 it suffered a massive fire and remained ruined for a long time. Restoration was completed only in the 20 century.

Today the Historical Museum of the Slovak National Museum operates here, and beautiful gardens grow around the castle. Even if tourists do not plan to visit the museum, it’s worth going up to the complex grounds for the panoramic view of the Danube, the bridges, and the old town.

Bratislava’s historic center is a labyrinth of narrow streets, small squares, old houses, and cozy cafés. One of the main sights of the Old Town is Michael’s Gate. It is the only preserved gate of the medieval city fortifications, with a history that begins as early as the 14 century.
Bratislava played an important role in the history of the Kingdom of Hungary – during 1563 – 1830 it was the coronation site of 11 kings and 8 queen consorts. The main witness of those events became the Gothic St. Martin’s Cathedral, where the coronation ceremonies were held. Its most noticeable feature is a tower about 85 meters high, atop which a gilded replica of the Hungarian crown is installed.
