Church of  the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary

Reviewed By SilviaG5019 - Kosice, Slovakia

Church of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary is one of the most beautiful church in Banská Bystrica. In church from the 13th century are elements of Roman, Gothic and Baroque style and also very nice alat from the 16th century is masterpiece of Master Pavol from Levoča. At first we were disappointed but later one kind man opened it for us so we were lucky and saw inside of church but unfortunatelly it is not allowed to take a photo.

The black obelisk

Reviewed By RudoP7

This monument represent thank of Slovaks (and our brothers Czechs) to the Red Army, whose soldiers gave their lives in fight against Nazi of the Third Reich. Although today many young people rather do not understand the importance of defeat of fasism and take everything for granted, this black obelisk stands in the center of the square to commemorate people who liberated us.
