Banka Lasky

The only LOVE BANK in the world is a unique place where people from around the world store their symbolic keepsakes of love, friendship or another special moment of happiness. LOVE BANK - is inspired by the true love story between Marína and Sládkovič - is created from the verses of the World's longest love poem - consists of 100 000 Security Boxes You can find the only LOVE BANK in the world in the basement of the house that is a part of 500-year-old gold mine. It is the house where Marína Pischlová lived for the most of her life. This house is a building of national and cultural significance as well as being part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Looking at the house from the outside I wasn't really impressed by the whole project and the idea. But after seeing all attractions, the interior of the house and the love bank I was really surprised how beautifully it all has been put together. From the whole reconstruction of the house to the presentation of the love story it all made very nice and interesting experience. You will not find anything similar anywhere in Slovakia. I have also seen the famous house of Romeo and Juliette in Verona or the love museums in South Korea and I must say that the experience there was really poor. This one actually made a point and especially it was based on the true story. I was actually quite impressed how well it was all done. You can feel the inspiration from other exhibitions like Harry Potter studios or the book and mirror installation in Bratislava, but it doesn't matter at all, because after all you'll be glad that you paid the money for something unique and exceptional.

Devin Castle

Located a few miles west of Bratislava. Devín Castle ranks among the most important archeological sites in Central Europe. Located at the banks of the Danube, where once the Danube and Amber Roads intersected, it watches over the confluence of the Danube and Morava rivers. Archeological research proves the area was settled about 7000 years ago and has since then been populated by one group or another, almost without interruption until today. Already during prehistory, it was a fortified center of power. During the Roman period the first several brick buildings were erected here. The first written source on Devín dates back to 864 and mentions a “Dowina Castle”. The Great Moravian period saw the erection of a church with colorful interior wall painting on castle grounds. Throughout the Middle Ages the Castle was an important border fortress, often passing from one noble family to another. In 1809 the Castle was intentionally demolished using explosives. In 1961 Devín Castle was declare

Devin Castle is a castle atop a hill at the confluence of the Danube and Morava rivers. Inside the castle is a sprawling landscape of gardens, pastures, fortification walls, staircases and courtyards in varying states of repair and disrepair. The climb up to the top of the tower and throughout the castle is perfectly safe though. Some of the castle ground buildings have been renovated and contain excellent exhibits of history of castle as well as a quick run through the history of Moravia up to the fall of the iron curtain in Czechoslovakia. The elevated position of the castle over the ground be made it an ideal position for observing the trade routes on the river. Views of Danube and Moravia, especially at the confluence of the two rivers, and city below are stunning. Makes a great half day visit from Bratislava.

Trenciansky Hrad

Reviewed By 30SimonH30 - Langbank, United Kingdom

The castle is a climb up the steep hill, but well worth the effort. There are tremendous views in all directions. You can fully understand why they decided to build a castle at that point, as it dominates the valley. The grounds and walls are interesting and beautiful in the sunshine. Climb up to the top of the tower and be ready for excellent photo opportunities across the landscape. There was a tour of the inner rooms available however it was only in Slovak. They had a quartet of musicians playing which was very good. There was a thunderstorm in the afternoon which caught a few people out, so be prepared.

SNM - Bojnice Castle Museum

Reviewed By CJW913 - De Pere, United States

If I had to describe a fairytale castle, I would describe this one!! Its light pink sandstone towers and crenellated turrets make this romantic castle the most visited, and one of the greatest tourist attractions in Slovakia. Rising above the town, and steps away from the hotel in which our tour group stayed, it was originally built in the 12th century. In the 13th century, it passed into the hands of the most powerful Hungarian warlord of the time. In 1527, the Thurzo family converted the castle into a comfortable Renaissance residence. It's last owner, Count Paiffy, remodeled it into a stately edifice resembling the castles in France's Loire valley. There are many stairs to climb, in order to reach all the floors and levels, but it is worth it. Just take your time. Each level is just as amazing as the last. The Golden Hall features a magnificent, intricate ceiling made of pine and covered with gold leaf. It was modeled on the interior of the Venetian academy of Arts. Many of the walls feature some of the most intricately carved wooden paneling I have ever seen. All the many levels feature gorgeous furniture and valuable paintings. And look down at some remarkable flooring beneath your feet! The top floor features the Knight's Hall. The castle sits in a large park with many rare species of trees, including what is claimed to be the oldest lime tree (600 years old) in Slovakia. A tour of a cave recently discovered is included in the tour. Skip that part. It is dark and dumb! The cave aside, this is the most romantic and beautiful castle that my spouse and I have ever visited! DO NOT MISS VISITING !!
