About this audio guide
This guide to Devín Castle on the edge of Bratislava goes back to a Sunday in April eighteen thirty-six, when a small group of lyceum students climbed to these ruins in quiet groups, careful not to draw attention. It follows a twenty-year-old Ľudovít Štúr, the songs they brought, and the memory of Great Moravia they came looking for. Best heard at the edge of the rock above the meeting of the Danube and the Morava.
