Church of the Assumption of the Mother of God

Blumenthal Church
Slovakia, Bratislava
Built at the end of the 19th century, the temple is located at a distance from the old quarters of Bratislava - on a small Florian Square. In the old days, this area of ​​the Slovak capital was called "Blumenthal", which in German means "Flowering Valley" - hence the second name of the temple. The Church of the Assumption of the Mother of God still performs its religious functions. In addition, thanks to the excellent acoustics, concerts of organ and brass music are held here. In the interior of the church, it is worth noting the baroque benches brought here from the Cathedral of St. Martin - the largest Gothic church in Bratislava, as well as the image of the Virgin Mary in a neo-Gothic frame, brought from Italy back in 1770.

In the small Florian Square, far from the old quarters, rises the majestic Church of the Assumption of the Mother of God, also called Blumenthal, so as not to confuse it with another city church of the same name. It was built in the area of ​ ​ the Slovak capital, formerly known as the Blooming Valley (German: Blumenthal). Today, a street overlooking Florian Square is named after the old name of the district. The church was built on the site of an ancient baroque church, which ceased to suit the townspeople with its capacity.
