Once a part of the city's fortifications, St. Martin's is an intriguing and fascinating building with a turbulent history, and is a must-see while in Bratislava. St. Martin's dates all the way back to the beginning of the 14th century, and it is the largest and finest, as well as one of the oldest churches in Bratislava. Long before the construction of St. Martin's began, this site was the former town center, and included a market and probably also a chapel.
