도시 곳곳에 펼쳐져 있는 고딕과 바로크 양식의 건물들. 이 작은 역사지구는 세계의 고건축전문가들의 필수 탐방코스로 통한다. 술시중 드는 아이의 조각이 유명한 옛 국립극장. 이 동상은 이름 있는 사람의 동상이 아니다. 이 거리를 유랑하고 배회했던 한 남자의 동상. 하지만 이 사람만큼 이 거리를 사랑한 사람이 없다고 믿기에 슬로바키아인들은 동상을 세우고 기념을 한다. 이 나라 사람들의 그런 정서를 극명하게 보여 주는 게 바로 브라티슬라바성. 11세기에 건립된 이 성은 슬로바키아의 얼굴로 통한다. 이 성에서 항상 사람들의 발길이 끊이지 않는 제일 존경받고 유명한 곳. 바로 이 동상이다. 슬로바키아의 왕이라 불리는 이 분은 사실 왕이 아니었다고 한다. 슬로바키아는 왕이 있어본 적이 없다. 그래도 슬로바키아 사람들은 이 사람을 자신의 왕으로 생각하며 존경과 사랑을 바친다. 현재 국립박물관으로 쓰이는 브라티슬라바 성은 공사 중. 겨우 한 전시장이 열려 있는데 그 곳만 둘러봐도 슬로바키아의 화려한 역사의 편린들을 엿볼 수 있다 전시물은 아름답고 정교하다. 그야말로 보물이다. 5세기부터 500년간 계속된 대모라비아 왕국의 영화를 이 전시물들을 통해 느낄 수 있다.

St Elizabeth's Cathedral (Dom Svatej Alzbety) in Kosice, Slovakia
The Cathedral of St Elisabeth is a Gothic cathedral in Košice.
It is Slovakia's largest church and one of the easternmost Gothic cathedrals in Europe.
The record of the existence of Kassa (modern day Košice), dating from 1230, is connected with the existence of the rectory church. In the process of the settlement's transformation from a rural community into a town, all its periods of successes and failures have been reflected in St Elisabeth's Cathedral.
According to historical and archaeological sources, the present-day cathedral was built on the place of an earlier church also consecrated to St Elisabeth of Hungary. It was referred to in documents of 1283 and 1290, in which the bishop of Eger Andrew II exempted Košice parish from the dean's sphere of jurisdiction.
St Elisabeth Cathedral is the largest Church in Slovakia with a total area of 1,200 square metres and capacity of more than 5000 people. It is the main church in the Košice Archdiocese. It is one of the most eastern Gothic cathedrals in Europe.
The church is 60 metres long and 36 metres wide; the height of the north tower is 59 metres. The central nave is 24 m long and aisles are 12 m long. Construction of the church influenced builders' activity in surrounding towns such as Prešov, Bardejov, Sabinov, Rožňava and it also influenced construction of other churches in Poland and Transylvania.
The Gothic Cathedral of Košice consists of the choir with a five-side chavet, five naves, two towers, a level sacristy at the north side, and two chapels and antechapel at the south side. There is a unique inside layout of the church, where the central nave and four aisles are crossed in the middle by one transept of the same height and width as the central nave which altogether create a Greek cross.
This big central space rises in the centre of the church and together with three equal exterior gables with richly decorated portals belong to the acme of medieval stone work of art in the Middle Europe. The complex of the cathedral and adjacent buildings – St Michael Chapel and Urban Tower were declared as Cultural Heritage Monuments in 1970.
In 1970, St Elisabeth Cathedral was declared a National Cultural Monument. All the profiled architectural features (pinnacles, gargoyles, gadroons) had been either destroyed by the rain water or were unmounted. The stone decoration at the north portal was very much affected by weathering. Cathedral reconstruction started again in September 1978 with detailed architectural documentation. After a short break, works started again in 1984.
In the meantime authorities started with the complex solution of Košice centrum monuments innovation, which was in 1983 declared as the biggest town monuments reservation in Slovakia. One of the factors that contributed to higher care of church was excluding motor-vehicle traffic from the main street in 1984 and tram traffic in 1986.
During the reconstruction it was decided to use a method of a maintaining the stage from the big reconstruction at the end of the 19th century. First the roof of the main and side aisles was repaired where the ceramic coloured enamel tiles were changed, but with the original pattern from the 19th century. The flèche was reconstructed and it was necessary to add 264 pieces of lead decorations.
From 1980–92 the most damaged part of the chapel and sacristy were reconstructed. The works were done by the Polish company Polskie Pracownie Konserwacji Zabytków from Vratislav. It was necessary to construct the new crown gardoons, gargoyles and pinnacles – according to the accessible documents and projects from the town's archival collection. Similarly the staircase towers were done. The gargoyles' reconstruction was done according to original Medieval patterns which are retained in the museums. This reconstruction included the interior repair of a chapel.
In 1992–95 the south façade, including windowpanes was done. The Sigimund's tower was under consistent renovation in 1995–97 when a rococo copper helmit was replaced. Cleaned and gilded plumbing decorations are originals from 1775. In 2008 reconstruction of the Rákóczi crypt was finished and in 2009 reconstruction of the most precious north portal was finished.
Today there is renovation work at the exterior of the north façade of the church and the west portal and interior of the crossed north aisle. The Matthias tower is awaiting reconstruction.
The base of the space composition is formed by the central nave with five bays which is divided by the cross aisle with one bay in axis. Apparent substitution of an idea are four subordinate spaces, inset into the ground plan of the building and inserted between the arms of main and cross aisle. In the first decades probably the enclosure walls were built and the main outline of space disposition was finished.

MICHAEL'S GATE the mistery of Bratislava
How to connect mentally MICHAEL'S GATE?
A mental connection to Michael's Gate framework allows the person to absorb (through a resonance phenomenon) large amount of positive energy.
These energies are generated by all those who meditate on the most part 'we are more' force us back the image.
The energy generated:
• They are used by the body as protection against negative energies. Knowing that has an energy shield is also the person feel safe and less vulnerable.
• They give the individual a greater charge psychoenergetics.
• fears away and not make the person feel more alone. •
Increase their inner strength. They are used by the body as protection against negative energies ..
The connection to the energy under Michael's Gate is done through meditation, prayer or positive thought (10 minutes maximum possible observing the image). In those moments we display the picture Michael 'Gate imagining its immense reserves of energy and require strong conviction with the desired event.
Then allow the energy to Michaels' Gate to flow into us, manifesting itself spontaneously in those qualities which we most need at that moment.
It is important to think that energy is always acting on us, even the slightest attempt to connect to the framework, and that you can not make mistakes. The intention of the action already establishes the connection.
Bratislava Old Town
The centre of Bratislava is also called the Old Town (41,953 inhabitants). The Old Town includes the historic centre and adjoining neighbourhoods that used to be the centre's immediate outskirts in the Middle Ages.
St. Michael's Tower is one of essential symbols of Bratislava. Only the gate on St. Michael's Tower has been preserved out of the original four gates that were gateways for entering the fortified medieval city. Currentlyan exhibition of weaponry and city fortifications of the Bratislava City Museum is on display in the tower. A zero kilometre, which counts the distance of selected cities in the world from Bratislava, is located under the tower. A view of the entire rest of St. Michael's Street (Michalská ulica), which is one of the oldest in the city, opens up from St. Michael's Gate.
Zichy's Palace (house No. 11) with its elegant, strictly Classicist-style facade draws the visitor's interest at the corner of Ventúrska and Prepoštská Streets. It was built in approximately 1775 at the behest of Count Francis Zichy. The palace was refurbished in the 1980's and now it hosts all kinds of ceremonies and celebrations. A Baroque-style Pállfy's Palace (house No. 10), which was rebuilt from an old house in 1747, is located at the corner of Ventúrska and Zelená Streets. A memorial plaque on the Pállfy's Palace facade on Ventúrska Street brings attention to the fact that the six-year old child prodigy, worldwide known as Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756-1791), probably performed a concert in the palace.
A parish church is a landmark of every Christian city. This is no doubt the case with St. Martin's Cathedral – the largest, oldest and most remarkable church in Bratislava from the 14th century. St. Martin's Cathedral was a coronation church between 1563 and 1830.
The crossroads of the Fisherman's Gate and Panská and Laurinská Streets is one of the Old Town's liveliest places. People like to stop here to listen to tunes played by street musicians. Tourists are bound to make a picture with the statue of Čumil in what is an almost ceremonial photo session. The Fisherman's Gate is a short street in Bratislava's historic centre. Next to House No. 1 on Fisherman's Gate Street is a statue of a man in real size, who is holding a hat in his hand. The man looks like he is saying hello to somebody he knows coming out of a nearby entrance. Unlike the nearby Čumil, this sculpture, which shines in the silver colour, represents a real Bratislava local, whom everybody has called Schöner Náci.

Surveying the streets around St. Michael's Gate in Bratislava
I happened to be in Vienna on Pentecost, which is a national holiday in Austria so everything was closed. As such I took a ferry boat to Bratislava and made the most of it. It was a great time! The guy in the video wearing the costume from the Middle Ages and playing the medieval musical instrument was very touristy but at the same time I have to admit, he did add to the atmosphere.
Michael's Gate is the only gate that has been preserved of the medieval fortifications and ranks among the oldest town buildings. Built about the year 1300, its present shape is the result of baroque reconstructions in 1758, when the statue of St. Michael and the Dragon was placed on its top. The tower houses the Exhibition of Weapons of Bratislava City Museum.
