Locus autem administrationis regni (donec auspice Deo regnum Hungariae recuperabitur) fiat Posonium.
"The seat of the kingdom's administration (until the Kingdom of Hungary is liberated again with God's help) shall be Bratislava." What preceded the adoption of the cited legal article number 49 from 1536 and what did it mean for Bratislava? Do you know why Bratislava was chosen as the capital of the Kingdom of Hungary out of all the cities? On a walk with guide Ivan Chylák, you will learn, for example, in which building the first session of the Hungarian Diet in Bratislava took place, or which royal offices moved from Buda to Bratislava after 1536.

The walking route is NOT wheelchair accessible.
