Don't get me wrong, it's very beautiful. But we made 3 attempts to visit this church in the time we were in Bratislava and every time it was shut.

This church is way more impressive in person than in photos. The shade of blue is marvelous, inside and out!. It is in terrific condition, unlike some of the nearby buildings. Nice contrast. Walk from old section of the city is about 15 minutes. It is only a few blocks from the Danube boat docks.

This is slightly outside the old centre, but worth the walk. There is a very poignant sculpture outside.

Very interesting church. It looks like a fairytale castle, if I do say so myself. It's classic Art Nuevo, and it's definitely something you just need to go see! The tour guide I went with called it the "Smurf Church", which I think is awesome! But in reality, look up a little of the history and forget for a moment... More

It worth the walk and after the church you can walk to the river and have coffee by the modern shopping center.

If you don't have a map, simply ask everyone on the street about the Blue Chuch and they will guide you there. The best thing about this building is the sky-blue color and the beautiful architecture.

Not far from town centre and on tourist maps. It really was beautiful. Unfortunately it was closed on both occasions we went there but the door was open and you could see the lovely interior. if English churches were like this more people might go!

it is the most colorful church i have ever been. it looks like somewhere in between Hansel &Gratel cake type building and smurf house. although it is bit outside of the old-town, easily accessible. Strongly recommended.
