Presidential Palace Garden

Part of the My Guide Network Since 2006 180+ destinations

Behind the Presidential Palace (Grassalkovich Palace) on Hodžovo Square is a handsome park (originally the gardens of the palace) with old trees and lawns. It was originally created as a French formal garden and still offers a quiet space away from the bustle of the city. 

It contains a statue of the Empress Maria Theresa on horseback, the Fountain of Youth by prominent Slovak sculptor Tibor Bártfay, and avant-garde statues by contemporary artists. Dogs and bicycles are not allowed, so it is a safe place to let kids run loose (there is also a small playgrund).

Access via Štefánikova or Banskobystrická Streets.
