City Tower Trnava

Highlight • Monument

The city tower is located in the center of the old town on Trinity Square. It was built in the 16th century (Renaissance style). When the weather is nice, you have a good view of the nearby small Carpathians.

Orthodox Synagogue Trnava

Highlight • Religious Site

As one of the few cities in Slovakia, Trnava has two well-preserved synagogues, both dating from the end of the 19th century. After the National Congress in Budapest in 1868, after three Jewish currents – Status quo ante, Neologism and Orthodoxy – had formed, a group of the Eastern Church also separated from the original religious community in Trnava in 1881, wanting to live according to original Jewish principles. In the burgher house at the intersection of Kapitulská and Haulíková streets, they founded their own school, and later a synagogue on a plot behind the house. The exact year of construction is not known, but it is already marked on the city map from 1895, so it must have existed by this year at the latest. It is built, just like the Status quo synagogue, in accordance with the regulations at the time, in the depth of the plot, at a sufficient distance from the street line. The Orthodox Synagogue, also called the "Small Synagogue" due to its small dimensions, is a west-east oriented hall building without towers, with women's galleries supported by cast-iron columns in its interior. In addition to these, some original historicized art-craft details and remnants of the original painting have been preserved. The continuity of the Jewish community's existence was interrupted by the rise of fascism in 1939. After World War II, the synagogue was preserved only briefly, and its original function faded at the beginning of the 1950s. Since then, it has been used for various utilitarian purposes, mainly storage, and for many years it fell into disrepair. At the beginning of the 1990s, the village restored the synagogue, and finally it was sold into private ownership. It underwent a complete reconstruction, and after decades it is accessible to the public again. The revitalization of the synagogue, even if not with its original function, but with new cultural and social utilization, is a relatively unique achievement in a peripheral area, like the renewal of Jewish architectural monuments in Slovakia.
