Magnet Blue church
STORY:
Did you know that the church was originally yellow? It achieved its current blue color during
repairs after World War II, during which it was slightly damaged.
The architect of the blue church was the Budapest architect Edmund Lechner, thanks to
whom this Art Nouveau gem is a highly sought-after object not only for church weddings.
The foundation stone was laid in 1909 and was dedicated to St. Elizabeth, daughter of
Hungarian King Ondrej II, who was born in 1207 at Bratislava Castle.
The church has become one of the symbols of the city of Bratislava, it is also shown as a
symbol of Slovakia in the Mini-Europe park in Brussels. The spatial experience will also be
enhanced by a visit to the interior, which no photograph can evoke.
At one time, the construction was behind schedule compared to the original construction
plans. When the ministry at the time pushed him, Lechner´s legendary sentence was: "Art
cannot be rushed."
Over time, we prove him right. The waiting at that time is balanced by the skillful hands of
the masters who signed the unique signature architectural work. Thanks for that.
