A Stroll Through Košice

It’s an invitation to discover the beauty of Košice’s architecture (if you’re coming from the train station).
It’s exotic, evokes the good old days, and is romantically situated between the park and the path to the Cathedral—it looks like something out of a fairy tale.

A magnificent coffered ceiling, a Baroque fireplace, stucco decorations, and chandeliers.
