Košice, or the metropolis of the East, this beautiful city with a population of almost 240,000 cannot avoid such a designation. It is therefore the second largest city in Slovakia. The first written mention dates back to 1230.

House of St. Elizabeth

It bears this name after Saint Elizabeth of Hungary, who managed to help many people during her short life. She died when she was 24 years old and that's why they decided to ordain her. The construction of this Cathedral began in 1380 and was completed in 1508, so it is a fact that the construction lasted almost 128 years, but the truth is that this temple requires constant renovations, which are ongoing even in 2022.

It is the largest church in Slovakia with a capacity of almost 5000 people. However, it is interesting that before the construction of this Cathedral, a wooden church stood on the site, which was affected by a fire in 1378.
