A date with the city

Do you want to know about Bratislava, full of vice, whores or drunkards? Where did Bratislava residents once hang out and what did they drink? Or where the city gallows stood?
The history of our city hides stories of bizarre criminals, thieves, heroes and anti-heroes. But it can also be magical, captivating with its architecture.
In Klariska Diškurz's February piece, we uncovered the known and unknown faces of our city with guides around Bratislava, but also with the people behind original projects that allow you to get to know this city more deeply.
