Old Castle Banska StiavnicaAfter strolling through the narrow streets, we will get to one of the oldest building monuments of the town . Originally a church, rebuilt into a castle in the 16th century. First part we do on our own, visiting the torture chamber, dungeon, castle well, tower. In the second part we go with the local guide inside of the castle, admiring local pipe workshop, shooting targets, old artefacts from the archeological research, original monuments from the Calvary.

After leaving the Old town of Banská Štiavnica, we still would like to walk up to the top of the Calvary. This is a Christian representation of the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. Not long ago, this Calvary was placed on the list of the 100 most endangered monuments in the world. It combines 3 large churches, where the service was held in Slovak, German and Hungarian language and several chapels. Climb to the Upper church is rewarded by a wonderful view. Definitely worth it! After our last stop, we hit the road again and drive back to Bratislava for approximately 2 hours.
