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.

    Small but worth a look
    The Church of St. Elizabeth, or Little Blue Church, is a Hungarian Catholic Church located in Old Town Bratislava built in 1908-1913. Open limited hours and small on the inside do pay attention to the oval floorplan and art-nouveau styling as well as the ornate altar.

    Beautiful Church
    A very unique church constructed between 1280 and 1297 in a Gothic style. It was then turned into a Renaissance church in the 17th century and into a Baroque church in the 18th century.

    Unique facade
    We were on our way from the bus stop Zochova to Old Town and this building attracted our attention due to its yellow and concave facade, something different from other churches we've visited before.

    We did not enter as the Sunday Mass service was being performed but managed a peek to see a beautiful baroque interior.

    However the notice on the door stated that self historical tour is available between 3.00 and 5.00pm on Sundays.

    Simple Beauty!
    My spouse and I were fortunate to find the door to this church open as we walked about during our free day in Bratislava. Built in 1717, it belongs to the Capuchin order, and is consecrated to saint Stephen, the first Hungarian king. The interior exhibits a simple, but notable beauty with its cream-colored walls, which contrast dramatically with the dark wood pews and altars. The finely-painted Baroque high altar especially stands out.

    The square on which the church is found is decorated with a column to the Virgin Mary.

    We enjoyed this church immensely, and hope that you will also!

    Once a Protestant Church
    This church was once a Protestant church in the 17th century and was later acquired by the Ursuline nuns who came from Vienna and Cologne. It was the original Little Lutheran built in the same time frame as the Jesuit church but served the Slovak speaking Protestant community. It was seized during the anti-reformation and was given to the order of Saint Ursula not long after completion. The nuns mission was to establish schools and colleges. The statue of the Madonna on the main altar is a copy of Our Lady of Loreto in Italy. The wood for the statue came from the Holy Land. It is a wonderful tribute to the Virgin Mary. The main altar is beautiful and it well worth your time to visit this church.

    I actually really enjoyed this Church. It provided something very different from the other churches I had been to in the area. It was small, and filled to the brim with idols. I found it quite charming.

    Another Church Dedicated to the Virgin Mary
    Church of The Visitation of Virgin Mary in Bratislava is located in the historical center of the city on the square of the Slovak National Uprising. The church is Baroque in style and is part of the complex of the hospital. On the sides of the altar are four sculptures including St. John of God, founder of the Order of the Hospitaller Brothers of Mercy. Besides the main altar, there are altars dedicated to St. Elizabeth, St. Cyril and St. John Nepomuk.

    Beautiful church On SNP Square.
    A lot of people visit Námestie SNP to pay tribute to the people who sacrificed their lives in the 1944 Slovak uprising against the Nazi's during WW2, the memorial to the fallen is superb and the architecture around this square is superb especially the beautiful Church Of The Merciful Brothers ( Kostol Milosrdnych Bratov ) which is a stunning Church that looks so evocative.
    A beautiful church built in the stunning Baroque style of architecture I so enjoy looking at ,the spire looks superb,I never had time to visit the interior but I was happy to just marvel at the sheer beauty of this church and take a few photos, the church looked particularly impressive at night when illuminated.
    Easy to locate on Namestie SNP and Most definitely well worth checking out.
