Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

An impressive looking building located next to a bridge leading to the park. The train station is located on the other side of the park.

The palace was the private house of well-known Košice builder Peter Jakab, who was also responsible for building the State Theatre building and the East Slovak Museum. In April 1945 the palace enjoyed its greatest day, when it was the residence of the president of the Czechoslovak Republic, Edvard Beneš.

Only the exterior of this building, located next to the City park at the entrance to the Old Town, is accessible for viewing.

Close to Mestsky park this picturesque building stands which looks like something from a Grimm;s Fairy tale. Sadly the building is not open to the public so you will have to enjoy its Gothic splendour from the street. Look for the little bird statue by the front entrance they are all over Kosice.

It looks quite beautiful from the outside unfortunately it wasn't possible to get inside so going here is more if you almost pass it.

Breathtaking Gothic palace located in Košice city park was built at the end of the 19th century by a significant architect Arpad Jakab from Košice as his private residence. Interesting is that he used the parts of the construction of the Cathedral of St. Elizabeth that have been discarded in its reconstruction.

The building is nice, located in the old town of Kosice, next to a park. Unfortunately, the building was closed for visitors and it looks a little bit decayed as you can see from the photos.
Anyway, a nice experience a place to see if you visit Kosice.

Not accessible, not in use and seems like its condition is getting worse.
PS: There are certain conditions to get in, but you have to ask for details at the MiC KOSICE information centre - They organised a few tours under the Potulky mestom Kosice (Wandering in Kosice) - the last one about a year or two ago.
