Where to go on a trip Južné Slovensko

In the former building of the orthodox synagogue in the town of Šurany, you will find Mestské múzeum. The permanent exhibition of the museum is accessible to visitors on the upper floor. The museum gathers into its collections archaeological finds from the well-known site Zámeček, artifacts from Šuriansky hrad, and various other items or documents that portray the history of the town. Do not miss a visit to the museum if you visit Šurany or its immediate surroundings.

The mission of the museum, which was established in 2007 as part of Mestské kultúrne stredisko, besides collecting, is also the rescue and restoration of objects or documents that have important historical explanatory value and help us portray events or happenings in past times. You can plan your tour of the museum every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Visitors will also broaden their horizons in the field of theater, which has a more than 150-year tradition in Šurany. Part of the exhibition is also dedicated to the oldest musical ensemble in Šurany, which is the šuriansky tamburáši. The development of ethnography is presented by an exhibition dedicated to traditional folk clothing or crafts such as basketry or ceramics.

An interesting feature is the model of the town of Šurany, which replicates the appearance of the town from the second half of the 17th century. During this period, the Ottoman-Turkish occupation prevailed in our territory, and the aforementioned Šuriansky hrad, which the model depicts, also resisted the expansion.

The Orthodox synagogue in Šurany, where the museum is located, is also a venue for many gallery exhibitions, concerts, or other social and cultural events. If you visit Šurany, do not miss the well-known archaeological site, which is Slovenská Trója – Zámeček. In terms of its area, it belongs among the largest and at the same time richest sites in Central Europe.

During your wanderings through the town, you will encounter the Socha Hrádockej Venuše, which was found during archaeological research in Nitriansky Hrádok. Looking at it, you will be reminded of the Slovak two-koruna coin, whose likeness the Venus adorned for many years. In the summer months, you can enjoy refreshment at the Prírodnom kúpalisku Tona Beach natural swimming pool, which you can find on the outskirts of the town of Šurany. The sports and recreational area is sought after not only by locals. Come and swim, relax under the warm rays of the sun, or spend the day actively doing water sports.

If you are looking for accommodation near Mestské múzeum v Šuranoch, you are in the right place. Just choose the date of your trip and you can book one of the surrounding guesthouses or apartments. We will leave the choice up to you, but we believe that you will be satisfied and take away new experiences and beautiful memories.

On the outskirts of the town of Šurany, you can find the interesting Prírodné kúpalisko Tona Beach. This sports and recreational complex is located on the shores of a natural lake. It features a pleasant gravel-sand beach and a clean water surface. This will be especially appreciated by visitors who do not mind slightly cooler water. This is caused by the greater water depth, which does not warm up excessively even on the hottest days and consistently offers refreshing cooling. The water is health-safe and causes no skin or digestive issues in case of accidental swallowing while swimming. The swimming complex also offers its visitors opportunities for active recreation. In addition to swimming, you can rent paddle boats and cruise across the lake's surface. The braver ones can venture further from the shore or visit quiet pools sheltered by tree canopies.

Aficionados of sport and recreational fishing can also find their niche here. Carp and catfish primarily swim in the deep, clear waters. The grass carp (amur biely) was artificially introduced here and is among the favorite catches of fishermen, also due to its tasty meat. Rest and relaxation in a fishing chair with cast lines is a dream of many a Slovak fisherman. In such a pleasant environment as provided by jazero Tona, you can relax as well.

If you decide to come to this place with your children, you will certainly not regret your choice. The youngest visitors love the adrenaline ride down the waterslide, which empties into a smaller plunge pool. The smallest children can play safely in the paddling pool. And when they tire of splashing in the water, they can frolic and warm up at the children's playground with climbing frames and slides. Various sports equipment is also available for rent if interested.

Around the water's surface, it is possible to set up a beach tent or park a camper van. The swimming area's services are conveniently complemented by several fast-food kiosks. Thanks to this, you can spend the entire day here without having to go anywhere else. Changing rooms and restroom facilities are a matter of course.

Popular places to visit include Archeopark Nitriansky Hrádok, which is also known as the "Slovak Troy" (Slovenská Trója).

Therefore, you can treat yourself to a unique holiday utilizing all the positive effects of salty seawater. What is more, in a pleasant Southern Slovak environment.

The history of the thermal spring begins in 1973. A borehole nearly 2 kilometres deep aimed to find water usable for heating greenhouses. However, due to the spring's exceptional properties and its convenient location, it began to be used for recreational purposes. Pools, sanitary facilities, and changing rooms sprang up here very quickly. Later, a restaurant and a hotel were added as well. In the early 1990s, the facility underwent reconstruction. Since that period, the swimming pool area has been constantly expanding and refining its services and offerings.

The miraculous water in Podhájska reaches a temperature of almost 80 °C at the spring. For use, it is naturally diluted to a temperature of around 30 degrees. You can visit the thermal swimming pool complex at any time of year, with the exception of April. Bathing in an outdoor hot pool in the cold winter is certainly an unusual experience.

When visiting the farm, you have the opportunity to look behind the scenes of breeding domestic animals such as horses, cows, sheep, goats, rabbits, chickens, and even bees. In addition to gaining new information about breeding and care, you have the opportunity to test your skills directly on the farm. Alongside breeding, the farm also focuses on growing agricultural crops. Emphasizing sustainability is a matter of course. The goal of the farm is to produce, grow, and breed in a way that does not jeopardize the needs of future generations.

The surroundings of the farm are used sensitively and rationally to ensure nature protection and reduce environmental pollution. In the vicinity, the workers of Gazdovský dvor try to extensively plant trees and establish pastures for sheep and goats. The result of the farm's activity is the production of high-quality domestic food that has a high nutritional value and can be purchased during your visit. You have a wide range of dairy products and meat to choose from, which comes from high-quality own breeding. The animals are fed on their own grown feed, have quality housing conditions, and enjoy well-being in a generous paddock.

Whether you go on your trip with your family, children, or friends, we hope you will happily enjoy your time together.

Would you like to experience a realistic trip into the past? We recommend visiting the village of Veľké Lovce in the Nové Zámky district. The period homestead, Dom ľudového bývania Veľké Lovce, will reliably draw you into the life, housing, and work of our ancestors in the 19th and early 20th centuries. The small private museum is simultaneously proof of the skill and ingenuity of its owner, who renovated it with respect for cultural heritage and made it accessible to the public. Although the folk housing house regularly becomes the center of cultural events organized by the village, its owner and operator continues to be Mr. Galbavý. You can also arrange a tour of this charming homestead with him by phone.

The folk housing house presents a 57-meter-long farmhouse dating from the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. However, it is assumed that the first walls of the house were built back in 1794. The original structure consists of unburnt sun-dried brick and clay. During the sensitive renovation, the owner consistently preserved both the period architecture and natural materials. This created a truly charming monument, a house with a unique atmosphere that currently serves as the seat of a small private museum. Part of the homestead is also a farmyard, pigsties, a chaff storage room, a stable, a barn, a cellar, an apiary, or a wattle sheep pen.

In the interior of the house, besides individual rooms and the kitchen with an open chimney, you can also view traditional furnishings, items of daily use, decorations, or working tools. You will find original kerosene lamps, old ceramics, beautiful folk embroideries, and a rare wooden chest from 1908. If you are lucky, you will catch one of the village's cultural events, for which the spaces of the clay structure become the venue. Carnival celebrations, traditional home pig slaughters, Easter markets, grape harvest festivals, or folklore celebrations regularly take place here. The property currently also includes a stage and a shelter for visitors.

You can combine time travel with horseback riding at the Trilobit ranch in the village of Čechy or with water relaxation at the sought-after thermal swimming pool Podhájska. In the winter season, you can enjoy perfect skiing at the Čechy Pallag resort. The offer of trip options and attractions here is truly diverse. Similarly varied is the offer of accommodation in the vicinity of Dom ľudového bývania Veľké Lovce. We recommend using the sought-after accommodation in Podhájska, from where diverse experiences will be just a stone's throw away.

The picturesque village named Čechy is located approximately within 10 kilometers south of the tourist-popular Termálne kúpalisko v Podhájskej. On the edge of the village, you can find a smaller pond named Pallag.

This artificial water reservoir, built in the last century, originally served the purpose of fish farming. Recreational sports fishing is precisely one of the main uses of this body of water. The depth of the water surface does not exceed 2 meters, and the area of the pond is just over 3 hectares. The sun-warmed waters and muddy bottom create a suitable environment for the reproduction of plankton needed for fish nutrition. The banks of the pond are lined with trees and shrubs. Here, you will find mainly poplars, willows, alders, and acacias. On hot summer days, they will provide you with shelter from the burning sun rays. If you do not mind mud and slightly murky water, you can also go for a swim in the pond and cool off your body. If you prefer cleaner water, a romantic walk around its surroundings might be enough for you. The rustle of leaves in the enchanting silence, observing the calm water surface, or watching waterfowl has a soothing effect.

The pond is also used in winter. During freezing days when its surface freezes over, it is popularity used not only by local residents for recreational ice skating, but also for other winter sports. Youth and adults alike enjoy playing hockey matches here until dusk. They groom the ice surface on their own using shovels and snow pushers. Even though the ice quality is not first-class, you can experience many beautiful moments here.

In the immediate vicinity of the pond, you will also find the local Lyžiarske stredisko Pallag ski resort. During favorable winter days, the pond serves as a water reservoir for artificial snowmaking. While the ski resort is operating, visitors also have at their disposal a small snack bar offering a basic selection of food and refreshments. It is precisely because of the shallow water depth that locals do not fear that the ice might break and someone could drown.

To enjoy the village of Čechy to the fullest, we recommend staying a bit longer. In summer, you can go horseback riding at Ranč Trilobit or plan your time according to your preferences. A morning swim has its own charm, so it is great to visit the pools of Termálne kúpalisko Podhájska. From there, you can regenerate your sport-weary bodies in its wellness center. Returning back to the village, you can also fit in a tour of Dom ľudového bývania Veľké Lovce along the way. If you choose a bicycle as your mode of transport, you have the opportunity to ride along the Náučný chodník Cyklopotulky medzi Žitavou a Hronom. In the winter season, you can brush up on your skiing skills at Lyžiarsky vlek Čechy Pallag.

Time is very precious, and so you do not have to spend it traveling, feel free to book accommodation near Rybník Pallag Čechy. Our hosts will gladly provide you with lodging, and you can wake up satisfied to new days. To save a bit on your budget, we recommend using private accommodation. You can enjoy your own privacy directly in cottages Čechy.

Slnečné jazerá (Sun Lakes) or Senecké jazerá are among the most visited recreation centers in Slovakia. We can find them in the town of Senec. Every year, this location is visited by many families with children, young active holidaymakers, and seniors. The advantage is the low entrance fee, the option to purchase a seasonal pass, and a number of attractions in the area. Slnečné jazerá in Senec are also popular among fishermen, who can pursue their hobby here without any worries.

The lakes were artificially created in 1845, when five separate lakes were formed after gravel dredging. These later merged into one water area with an area of 120 hectares and a depth of up to 12 meters. Since 1919, the place began to be used as a natural swimming area. At that time, it was also known by the name Slovenské Tahiti (Slovak Tahiti).

Today, the resort is divided into three zones - northern, southern, and eastern. The northern side is especially suitable for families with children, as there is an Aquathermal Senec water park with water attractions and a playground for children. However, you will find various attractions for active holidaymakers in every part. You will appreciate the beach volleyball courts, football fields, and tennis courts.

Water sports are a matter of course here. You can practice Zumba and yoga, or explore the surroundings faster on scooters, which you can rent. During the summer, various musical events held directly on the premises are also very popular.

You don't have to go far for other points of interest.

The Historická budova SND is one of the landmarks in Bratislava. This Neo-Renaissance building on Hviezdoslavovo námestie is currently the seat of the Slovenské národné divadlo. You can come to enjoy opera, ballet, or drama in this unique space. Rest assured that a fantastic experience awaits you here.

In Bratislava – Staré Mesto, a building housing a city theater, built by Count Juraj Csáky, stood on the site of this historical building as early as 1776. The current Historická budova SND was constructed based on designs by architects Ferdinand Fellner and Hermann Helmer. They built over 50 buildings across Europe in an eclectic style. The building was completed in 1886, and the actors who first stepped onto the boards that mean the world were from Hungary and Germany. They performed as guests on the stage until 1920.

In 1920, the Slovenské národné divadlo began writing its history. Operas, ballets, and drama plays were presented to audiences until the 1950s. Subsequently, after a hall for drama was established, the Historická budova SND was reserved for opera and ballet. The theater has undergone several renovations. The most fundamental one was carried out in 1972. Since then, only certain parts have been renovated.

The building will captivate you at first sight. Its exterior is grand, preserved in an eclectic style. The centerpiece consists of 5 busts of prominent personalities located on its facade. Originally, there were original busts of F. Liszt, W. Shakespeare, J. W. Goethe, and two Hungarian writers, J. Katona and M. Vörösmarty. In 1936, they were taken down during repairs, and to prevent their destruction, they were placed in the Slovenská národná galéria. Currently, there are copies on the facade, where a bust of W. A. Mozart stands instead of the bust of Vörösmarty. In front of the building, the artistically valuable Ganymedova fontána will also catch your attention.

You can visit the Historická budova SND anytime during the theater season from September to the end of June. Performances are usually held every day on a stage that is 18 m wide, 17.5 m deep, and 21.3 m high. Overall, it can provide a perfect theater experience for approximately 600 people. Therefore, if you choose one of the offered performances from the current repertoire, rest assured that you will leave full of emotions and impressions from professional acting performances. Afterwards, simply head to your pre-booked accommodation near the Historická budova SND.

Bratislavský hrad, proudly towering over the Dunaj river, is considered one of our national symbols. Visiting our capital city should be a duty for everyone, and the castle is no exception. However, its past was not always rosy.

The castle lies on the castle hill, which is considered the southernmost spur of the Malé Karpaty mountain range. Located here was an important strategic point, a ford, thanks to which the castle gained good connections with the other bank of the Dunaj.

The first inhabitants were likely dwelling on the castle hill as early as 4,500 years ago, although this could not be proven. Stone structures stood on the castle hill during the 9th century. There was even a brick basilica standing here. However, we only encounter the castle in the year 907, when it bore the name Pressalauspruch. The downfall of Great Moravia occurred, and the castle became an important border castle.

Bratislavský hrad was subjected to fierce raids by the Tatars. It resisted them in 1241. Despite the castle's success, the king at the time, Belo IV, decided to improve the existing fortification. He focused mainly on strengthening the western side of the castle, from where he expected the most raids. A large residential tower and a defensive tower, today known as Korunovačná veža, were built.

The castle underwent several major changes; one of the largest began during the reign of Žigmund Luxemburský, who came to power in 1387. The reason was the threatening risk of Hussite raids. A new two-story palace was built.

When Bratislava became the center of the entire country, it was necessary to renovate the castle again. This took place in the years 1552–1560. The castle received two new wings, and its interior spaces were also renovated.

Perhaps you cannot imagine it today, but for long centuries, the castle had only two floors and two towers. The castle began acquiring its current contours during the reign of the Pálffy family, when the third floor and the remaining two towers were built between 1635 and 1639. The golden age of the castle continued during the reign of Mária Terézia, but after her death in 1780, the castle gradually declined. It was no longer needed and became a seminary. Among others, Anton Bernolák and Juraj Fándly studied here. Neither did this seminary last long. In 1802, the castle was acquired by the army, which converted it into barracks. In 1811, a terrible fire engulfed the castle, turning it into a ruin. Subsequently, the castle lay in ruins for many years and received a dignified reconstruction only after 1953. It underwent its most recent reconstruction only recently, and there is no longer any sign or trace of its dark past.

In conclusion, an interesting fact. Do you think the castle has a square shape? Many people think so, but it is not true. The reality is that each castle wall has a different length. The walls measure 85.20 meters, 85.17 meters, 77.15 meters, and the last one measures less than 60 meters. Their width is also different. Treat yourself to a visit to the castle; in addition to the permanent exhibition of the Slovenské národné múzeum, this national symbol offers an unforgettable view of Staré Mesto, Petržalka, as well as the deep waters of the Dunaj.

It is most ideal to stay near the castle in Staré Mesto. You will find luxury hotels or stylish guesthouses here. Cheaper accommodation is offered by the outskirts of the city, where there is no shortage of private rooms and apartments for rent. Bratislava has dozens of beautiful places, and the very first one you should visit is Bratislavský hrad.

Among the significant personalities who contributed to the development of art is also the artist Andrej Bagar, after whom the theater in Nitra is named. Divadlo Andreja Bagara v Nitre belongs among one of the largest and most modern buildings in Slovakia, where you can watch amazing artistic performances of our professional actors.

The history of the theater began to be written back in 1833, when the first Nitra theater managed to welcome up to 360 visitors into its premises. The building of this theater stood here until a bomb strike destroyed it during World War II. However, even these wartime conditions did not prevent the spread of culture, and the theater artists moved into the premises of the TJ Sokol gym. The activities of the theater persisted here for more than 60 years. In 1979, the actors returned back to the Nitrianske krajové divadlo, which was named after Andrej Bagar.

The theater currently focuses mainly on drama, but its premises can be transformed for performances of opera, operetta, and ballet. It consists of two halls,  one with a capacity of 577 seats and the second, smaller one, which is an experimental studio for a 150-member audience. In the repertoire of this theater, you will find musicals in addition to drama plays. In the early evening hours, its large hall regularly fills up with people in beautiful gowns, craving an artistic experience and at the same time relaxation from the worries of everyday days.

The theater world is not only about acting, it is also about education. A library that operates directly on the premises of the theater serves these purposes. Students, amateur ensembles, as well as the general public can study dramatic texts and specialized literature here. This library is the only library in Slovakia specializing in theater and drama outside of Bratislava. It has more than 6,000 titles in its collection.

On the theater stage, you can also experience various performances of musical bodies, ensembles, broadcasts of television recordings, or shows. Festivals, which are also attended by visitors and theater artists from abroad, are popular formats as well. Among the most significant is the international theater festival Divadelná Nitra. A theater restaurant and a café, where you will find a diverse offer of food and drinks, are also available on the premises of the theater. Their services are also utilized when organizing formal receptions.

Right in the centre of the town of Levice, you will find a 13th-century stone castle. Despite being in ruins, the monument is still impressive. Today, the castle grounds house the Tekovské múzeum. Come and take a look at the remains of the Gothic palace or the bastion that once served as a summer pavilion. You will learn many interesting facts about the history of the castle itself, which changed hands among some of the most famous owners and even withstood Ottoman troops.

No written records have been preserved regarding the construction of the castle that would confirm the exact year it was completed. However, the castle was built in a place of strategic importance. It was a site protected by a part of the Štiavnické vrchy mountains, and the surrounding area had difficult access due to marshes. The distant views that the castle offered thanks to its location also contributed to its watchtower function. The first owner of the castle was one of the most famous landowners, Matúš Čák Trenčiansky. Later, when the castle became royal property and its position grew stronger, people began to settle in its vicinity, and thus in the 14th century, the new settlement of Nové a Veľké Levice was founded.

In the 16th century, much like a large part of our country, the Levický hrad withstood Ottoman raids. During this period, a Renaissance mansion with massive fortifications was added to the castle. As the fighting by the Ottomans gained strength, at the end of the 17th century, the castle vice-captain decided to surrender the castle to the Ottomans without a fight. In less than a year, imperial troops managed to recapture the castle.

This significant military fortress also bears witness to the figure of the anti-Habsburg estate uprisings. František II. Rákoczi and his kurucs destroyed and burned down the castle before retreating from Levice at the beginning of the 18th century. The moat and the castle well were filled in, causing the castle to lose important features of a military fortress.

After those events, the castle was never restored again, it gradually fell into disrepair, and only ruins now remind us of ancient times. Visit Levický hrad and remember a piece of our history. You can also reminisce about times past while touring one of the exhibitions found in the Tekovské múzeum museum. Its unique collection boasts more than 100,000 exhibits. If you visit Levice, do not miss the Tekovská hvezdáreň observatory either, where you can explore the starry sky or learn interesting facts about space. A pleasant place to spend your leisure time taking a walk or a bike trip can be found around the Chránený areál Levické rybníky protected area. During hot days, you will appreciate a visit to the Termálne kúpalisko Margita – Ilona thermal swimming pool, where you will experience a true summer atmosphere.

Visit the Tekov region, historic Levice and discover the attractions of the surrounding area. If you are looking for accommodation near Levický hrad, we have a few tips for you. Book one of the offered family guesthouses or a cosy cottage in the surroundings and set out for new experiences.

Did you know that Primaciálny palác in Bratislava – Staré Mesto is among the most sought-after attractions in Bratislava? This landmark takes the breath away of visitors and locals alike thanks to its architecture. The 18th-century Neoclassical palace is the current seat of the mayor of the capital of Slovakia, and its designated areas serve as exhibition spaces for the city gallery.

In the historical core of the city, Cardinal Jozef Batthyány had the most magnificent and largest palace of the Hungarian Kingdom era built. Under the guidance of Viennese architect Melchior Hefele, this vision was successfully completed in 1818. An extraordinarily impressive appearance, a fantastic location, and its historical moments multiply the value of the palace. In addition to coronations, the Peace of Pressburg was signed here in the 18th century. Today, the palace serves as the city hall.

The exterior of the palace is beautiful.

The overall experience of the interior will be enhanced by Kaplnka sv. Ladislava. Come to a mass on one of the Sundays and experience your spiritual moment here.

You can find the offer of accommodation in our capital city on the MegaUbytovanie.sk portal.

The Bratislava city district of Staré Mesto attracts tourists as well as locals with many attractions, whether cultural, artistic, or historical. Each of them has its own story. Michalská brána is among them as well. It is the only preserved gate from the original four through which people once entered the fortification of medieval Bratislava.

It received its name from the settlement and church of St. Michael, which was located in front of the fortification. In the 16th century, it was demolished due to the Turks. The settlement is now recalled only by a pink gravestone incorporated into the masonry of the tower. It is visible upon entering it, from the inner side, at approximately the height of the third floor.

The tower was built at the end of the 14th century, but throughout its lifetime it underwent many renovations and alterations. It is a fascinating blend of various styles, as there is a noticeable Gothic influence in the lower part of the tower, the upper floors bear hints of the Renaissance, and the elegant tower with a bulbous dome originated during the Baroque period. In the past, a drawbridge, a drawbridge tower, and strong drawbridge gates were also part of it.

The massive tower soars to a height of 51 meters. Once, a trade route to Moravia led through its gate. Today, the marking of the historical coronation route passes through the gate. Balancing on its tip is a copper statue of the Archangel Michael slaying a dragon, created by Peter Eller. Over time, the statue was significantly damaged and was removed from the tower in 1845. During its repair, a box containing literal historical treasures was removed from it. Among others, a copper plate engraved with text about the author of the statue, banknotes and copper coins from the time of the statue's last repair, a list of city council members, and two pieces of parchment. One of them contained text written in Latin. It stated that the statue was crafted during the reign of Maria Theresa and repaired during the reign of Francis I. There was also a list of saints and their relics stored in a silver-plated box.

On the right side, right next to the gate, house number 15 is seemingly glued to Michalská veža. It is a rarity. With its width of 1.3 meters, it is likely the narrowest house in Bratislava, as well as in all of Europe. Another point of interest is the kilometer zero marker with compass points, displaying the distances to 29 European and world capitals. Furthermore, a laser beam is emitted from the southern window of the tower, indicating the route of the original Korzo promenade.

In the Middle Ages, bad deeds were punished in truly cruel ways. There were so-called cages of shame where the offender was placed. When the Bratislava cage of shame was removed and stored in the municipal depot, a pillory was erected in front of Michalská brána. The offender was hung on it with a large, heavy stone ball attached to their leg. Passersby could spit on them.

When you step out onto the balcony of Michalská brána, you will enjoy a panoramic view of the castle hill, the villa neighborhood on the hills, the historical city center, and the individual roofs and towers of Bratislava. Inside the tower is Múzeum zbraní. While climbing up the tower across seven floors, visitors will view medieval weapons and armor, tournament equipment, firearms, and an exhibition of all the crafts related to the defense of the medieval city.

Especially during exam periods, the surroundings of Michalská brána are often full of silently walking students. Rumor has it that if a lazy student manages to walk through the alley under the arches of Michalská brána without uttering a single word, they will surely pass their exam. Whether true or a myth, a large number of them try it every year.

When you come to admire the individual attractions in Bratislava, definitely do not miss Michalská brána, one of the iconic symbols of our capital city. However, not only this place deserves your attention, which is why we recommend making a multi-day trip to Bratislava. The pages accommodation Bratislava and specifically accommodation Bratislava Staré mesto will help you choose the right accommodation, leaving you only with planning your trip.

Kriváň or Bratislavský hrad. What do they have in common? Both are considered our national symbols. We will introduce you to another one of them. It is hrad Devín, proudly towering on a high rocky cliff.

It is located a few kilometers west of our capital city of Bratislava. The village of Devín lies below the castle. From the castle cliff, there is a breathtaking view of the wide surroundings, the nearby Austrian borderland, and mainly the confluence of two large rivers, the Morava and the Dunaj. The castle hill excelled in its strategic position mainly thanks to the confluence of the two mentioned rivers. This was utilized by the Celts and later also by the Romans. The Roman Empire and its border reached all the way to the Dunaj river, and they built their settlement right on the castle hill. Later, the old Slavs followed up on it.

The castle hill also held a significant position during the glorious Veľká Morava. There was a defensive hillfort here. The first written mentions of the castle as such date back to 1223. However, its appearance is extremely difficult to determine, as the castle was conquered, demolished, and rebuilt several times. At the beginning of the 14th century, it underwent many changes of its owners. It became a royal castle, and to make it more comfortable for its inhabitants, it was gradually rebuilt into the Gothic style. Despite this, it did not lose its defensive military function, as it lay on the threatened Hungarian border.

In 1635, the castle came into the hands of the Pálffy family from Ardedu. During the period of their reign, the castle survived the anti-Habsburg uprising and also the uprising of František II. Rákoczi. In a later period, due to the condition of the castle, it was no longer representative to reside in it, nor did it meet the requirements of modern fortresses. For this reason, the castle became a warehouse and served for economic purposes. At the beginning of the 19th century, Bratislava and a part of Záhorie came into conflict with French Napoleonic troops. Despite the fact that they concluded a truce with them, the French blew up the castle in 1809.

Over time, Devín increasingly became a symbol of the state and a memory of Cyril and Methodius. In 1932, a purchase agreement was made between the Pálffy family and the state, and subsequently in 1935, the castle was taken over. In 1961, the castle was declared a national cultural monument.

If you like the majestic silhouette of the castle ruin so much that you want to have it above your head every morning, nothing is easier. The village of Devín itself offers many private accommodations and cottages that will satisfy even the more demanding ones. If you don't mind commuting to the castle, choose something else. Accommodation in one of the parts of Bratislava, such as Karlova Ves or in the Staré Mesto itself.

The watchtower with a square footprint is approximately 13 meters high. A metal spiral staircase is installed around its wall, leading you to a wooden gallery. The main task of Vartovka was to protect not only local residents, but also important mining towns from approaching danger.

It fulfilled its role until the beginning of the 18th century. Today, it is a popular location for families with children, hosting various cultural events and being visited by youth as part of school trips.

Come and enjoy the beauty of Budmerický kaštieľ manor house, which is located in the village of Budmerice and ranks among the landmarks of this village. This is not only thanks to its stunning appearance, but also due to the wonderful 19th-century English park. Every year, it is visited not only by locals, but also by foreign tourists.

This beautiful manor house was built by Count Ján Pálffy together with his wife. The count was a hunting enthusiast, so the manor house originally served mainly for these purposes. The manor house itself draws from several architectural styles. It was inspired mainly by the French Renaissance. Although the exterior resembles older artistic styles, the interior was adapted to the living requirements of the modern era of that time. An interesting feature is that it includes a dumbwaiter, central heating, and numerous staircases.

Locals experienced unique feelings even back then during a stroll through the English park. In its vicinity, Count Pálffy had a chapel built dedicated to Our Lady of Lourdes. A legend is tied to the manor house, in which the count fell in love with a French comtesse. He wanted to transform his two residences into the style of French châteaux and then marry her. By the time he succeeded, the young lady was reportedly already married.

After the count's death, the manor house turned into a center of social life, where his son Pavol organized various gatherings and hunts. After World War II, the manor house was looted, subsequently passed into the hands of the state, and is currently managed by the Ministry of Culture. During opening hours, you can view its permanent exhibition here. Can you imagine what it would be like to spend a night here?

In the picturesque village of Bardoňovo, in the district of Nové Zámky, stands a 19th-century Neoclassical manor house known as Kaštieľ Bardoňovo.

Through gradual renovations, they transformed it into a manor house that remembers from the lives of its owners not only happy, but unfortunately also sad stories and events.

The Kelecsényi family gradually acquired properties in the surrounding area and raised their status.

At the end of the 19th century, Rafael Kelecsényi, who was a prominent figure in the cultural and political life of the former Bars county (Tekovská župa), expanded the northern part of the manor house and completed the entire eastern wing. The manor house and its facades acquired Neo-Baroque elements.

Later, the manor house became the residence of his daughter Irena. In her life, she had to cope with the death of her husband, who was shot by Soviet soldiers during World War II. The manor house was looted, first serving as a German headquarters and later as a hospital set up by Soviet soldiers. Shortly after the end of the war, Irena moved to Hungary. The manor house fell into disrepair until 1991, when it underwent extensive reconstruction.

The dominant feature of the building is the semicircular section housing a ceremonial hall, which is currently used for various social, cultural, or private events.

Originally, a different calvary built in the last third of the 18th century stood on the site of the current one. It had seven stations and was replaced in 1885 (and subsequently consecrated in that same year) by the present calvary, which has fourteen stations. The original Kaplnka sv. Kríža chapel was converted into Kaplnka Božieho hrobu. While in the early years the calvary was outside the urban area, development gradually began to approach it in the 19th century until it surrounded it in the 20th century. At present, the calvary is very clearly visible from the city, and tourists often start out right from the center of Nitra to go and see it. Near the calvary is Lurdská jaskyňa, which also serves as a chapel.

Overall, the calvary consists of twelve Neo-Romanesque chapels depicting twelve stations of the Stations of the Cross. They are arranged along the path leading from Kostol Nanebovzatia Panny Márie to Kaplnka Božieho hrobu. The latter is located at the top of the hill and represents the fourteenth station. In addition to the chapel of the final station, the Crucifixion statuary is also located at the top of the hill.

Since 1765, a small Renaissance monastery has stood at the top, originally built for the Spanish order of the Nazarenes. It gradually became a residence for retired priests and eventually an orphanage. Between 1878 and 1885, it was rebuilt in the Neo-Romanesque style, and in 1925, an additional floor was added until it ultimately became the Mission House of the Mother of God.

Tourists also enjoy taking a trip to the Nitra calvary, mainly due to the great view it offers. The landmarks of Nitra, Šibeničný vrch, Zoborské vrchy, Tribeč, Pohronský Inovec, Vtáčnik, and Štiavnické vrchy are all right in the palm of their hand. That is what you call a perfect panoramic view. Children and seniors can easily handle the walk to the top of the calvary; it is a pleasant stroll along a grassy path.

A European unique, Arborétum Mlyňany SAV, is situated between the villages of Vieska nad Žitavou and Tesárske Mlyňany in the district of Zlaté Moravce. The protected area of the botanical garden stands out with its rich collection of trees and shrubs. Its collections, which contain more than 2,300 species of woody plants from the Mediterranean, America, Africa, and Asia, place it in the position of the most significant dendrological facility in Slovakia. The unique green area, dominated by a picturesque manor house, is open to the public year-round.

The arboretum was founded in 1892 by the Hungarian nobleman Štefan Ambrózy-Migazzi. His main goal was to concentrate as many exotic trees and shrubs as possible in the botanical garden and to demonstrate their viability in our climatic conditions. In an oak-hornbeam grove, he gradually planted woody species imported from Germany, France, or England. The beginnings of the planting were linked to the construction of a Neoclassical manor house with a tower, which was completed in 1894. By 1925, it was possible to plant more than 300 species of evergreen plants in the arboretum. After World War II, the area came under state administration and was later taken over by the Slovak Academy of Sciences, which manages it to this day.

The arboretum currently covers an area of 67 ha, and its plant collection is divided according to a geographical principle into 5 parts with constructed educational trails. The central part consists of the oldest Ambrózyho park with a beautiful manor house and a predominance of monumental oak trees and original hornbeam stands. In the arboretum, you can also walk among the trees and shrubs of Asia, North America, Korea, and of course, there is also an area dedicated to Slovak dendroflora. The presentation of woody species in each part of the arboretum is combined with the typical architecture of the respective regions, complemented by small ponds and lakes.

In addition to being an important scientific workplace dedicated to research, the arboretum opens its park with a unique collection of trees and shrubs to the general public. You can freely stroll through the arboretum, with diverse species of trees, shrubs, and flowers from various corners of the world providing a backdrop.

If you decide to visit the ancient city of Nitra, you will certainly find plenty of beautiful things and cultural monuments to visit and make your stay more enjoyable. Worth noting and visiting is Dražovský kostolík, which is a unique cultural and sacral monument of this region. You can find it in the village of Dražovce, which was a borough of Nitra until 1975. You can get here by car or by public transport. The village is a well-known archaeological site from the era of Slavic settlement. A settlement and a burial ground from the period of Great Moravia were located here. Archaeologists discovered over 400 graves with significant artifacts in this location.

You will see the church from afar. This simple structure proudly towers on the edge of a limestone cliff, which is a spur of the Tribeč mountain range. It is a landmark that cannot be overlooked. The church is the oldest sacral building of the Romanesque type in the territory of Slovakia. Its origin is dated back to the 12th century. It is officially named after Saint Michael the Archangel. Upon your arrival, you will be charmed not only by the structure itself, but also by the location where it stands and its unique atmosphere. The church has a rectangular floor plan. On the east side, there is an apse alcove in the shape of a semicircle. The roof is a simple gabled roof covered with tiles. On the west side towers a small turret with a pyramidal roof. The building is constructed of stone and brick. The nave of the church measures only 6.3 x 4.3 m. The entrance is from the side. The windows are small and set relatively high. It is assumed that another building, a hermitage, was attached to the church in the past.

The church is mostly closed. You can get inside only exceptionally if you request it in advance. The only exception occurs annually on September 29, when Michael celebrates his name day. At that time, Holy Mass is regularly held here. From the hill sought after by tourists, there is a wonderful view of the city of Nitra and surrounding villages. From here you will also see Nitriansky hrad. Did you know that the oldest part of the church contained mortar dating back to the 9th century? It is also written that the church was meant to fall victim to the construction of a railway line, for which stone was quarried from the hill on which it stands. Only protests by local residents saved it from demolition.

The church has caught the eye of many artists with its appearance. In addition to paintings, it appeared on postage stamps and coins. Not only documentary, but also feature films were shot here. Such famous Slovak music bands as Tublatanka also used the environment to shoot their music videos. Do you remember the 50 SKK banknote? Yes, this famous church is depicted on it as well.
