About this audio guide
This guide to the House at the Good Shepherd in Bratislava starts with the small figure of Christ in the niche on its corner, and with the question of what a house keeps when its guardian is replaced. It reaches back to the seventeen sixties, to a master mason and a merchant squeezing a home onto an awkward scrap of land below the castle. Inside, it turns to the sundials, hourglasses and clocks made by the city's own clockmakers. Start on the street corner, looking up.
