Who makes up the city?

Discover life in old Pressburg! What was life like in old Bratislava at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries? We’ll learn about the families who shaped the city’s life, as well as the languages spoken in Bratislava and the diverse nationalities of its inhabitants. Pupils will work with a map, step into the shoes of townspeople and learn about the importance of trade, charity and culture. Through hands-on activities and creative work, they will learn that a city is made up not only of buildings, but above all of people.
