St Elisabeth Cathedral

The largest Gothic cathedral in Slovakia and one of the finest in Central Europe — a soaring 14th-century masterpiece on the most beautiful main street in Slovakia. The north tower has 162 steps to a panoramic platform; the crypt contains the tomb of Ferenc Rákóczi II, hero of the Hungarian uprising.

🏛️

Hlavná Street Košice

The finest main street in Slovakia — a pedestrian boulevard of Gothic, Baroque, and Art Nouveau buildings flanking a musical fountain, with the Cathedral at one end and the State Theatre at the other. Almost completely free of tourism; an entirely authentic Central European urban experience.
