Námestie Slobody

Bratislava's underused "Freedom Square" was one of the country's first to be renamed after the Velvet Revolution. Sadly, the centrepiece of this Soviet-era plaza, Slovakia's largest fountain, has been out of action for more than a decade. Shaped like a bulging, silvery lime flower and known as Fontána Družby (Union Fountain) it stands forlorn in Nám Slobody.
