Description
The city in eastern Slovakia is becoming a traveling dream of domestic but also foreign tourists. It stands out not only for its beautiful architecture, but also for its specific square, that cannot be found far and near.
Town Hall Square of Bardejov forms the central historical town zone and is one of the most beautiful areas in Slovakia.
The centre of Bardejov is a rectangular square with an area of 260 x 80 meters. It is therefore built on a sort of irregular chessboard plan.
The square is surrounded on three sides by a row of typical narrow burgher houses. On the northern side of the square, there is the dominant of the city - Basilicia minor of St. Giles, joined with the Renaissance building of the former Municipal Humanitarian School
The indescribable atmosphere of the Bardejov square is enhanced by its representative 16th century town hall building, built in Gothic-Renaissance style. It houses an exhibition of the Šariš Museum dedicated to the history of the town.
If you want to have a wonderful view of the entire square, visit the Basilica Tower. Even if you have to overcome a lot of stairs, the view is really worth it.
