About this audio guide
This guide walks Obchodná in Bratislava, the old road out through Michael's Gate into the vineyard suburb of Schöndorf. It follows the winegrowers who poured their own wine in their gateways, the inns that lined the route, and a surprisingly frank arrangement the medieval town council made just beyond its walls. You'll also hear about the names the street has worn, one of them borrowed from a Soviet minister.
