About this audio guide
This audio guide to Primate's Square in Bratislava follows the money behind the palace that fills it, from the archbishop who built it in the seventeen-eighties to the city council that wanted it more than a century later. It turns on an iron hat, a real-estate deal in nineteen oh three, and the cost of repairing an old building. Stand facing the palace front, where you can see the pediment and what sits on top of it.
