Stará radnica, or the Old Town Hall, is a historic building located in the heart of Bratislava. Dating back to the 15th century, it combines various architectural styles, including Gothic and Renaissance. The building served as the city hall until the late 19th century and now houses the Museum of City History, showcasing exhibits related to the city's past, including medieval torture instruments and historical armor. One notable attraction is a cannonball embedded in the tower wall, fired during the Napoleonic Wars. Visitors can explore its rich history, unique architecture, and cultural significance. The site is accessible to all, and while admission fees vary, the museum typically offers guided tours.
