Things to see and do Bardejov

This medieval Gothic building with three naves and the 76-metre high tower is a true museum of Slovak religious art. Inside, there are 11 wooden altars of the th and th centuries, whose altar dedicated to Saint Barbara is attributed to the master Paul de Levoča. The main altar, carved in 1888, is immense and dominated by a Christ crucified in a very surprising suspension. The baptismal font is a fine example of the mixture between Protestant and Catholic heritages.

This central square built in the early th century has a oblong shape. It is broken to the north by the basilica. The old town hall nestles majestically in its centre. It is surrounded by over bourgeois houses, some of which are worthy of interest. At No. 13, the Gantzaugh house (the headquarters of the regional museum of Šariš) has a beautiful rococo facade. At No. 16, the old school of 3 houses linked to each other is now city hall. This house, originally Gothic and modified in Renaissance style, has lovely frescoes on its facade, including Bardejov weapons.

At No. 26, a Gothic Renaissance style house is priceless, with its facade adorned with a superb fresco depicting the coronation of the Virgin Mary. The house No. 42 served as a cellar at the Tokaj which produced the vineyards of the city. At that time, the market was hosted, and the city hall was sometimes sheltered in the event of weather.
