Bratislava Further Distractions
Originally a frontier post of the Roman Empire, this baroque palace has excellent views of the Danube, and its Hall of Mirrors hosted the signing of the Pressburg peace treaty after Napoleon's armies defeated Austria at Austerlitz in 1805. Built in the late 18th century, the palace is today home to a branch of the Municipal Museum, containing a Museum of Folk Music and a fine collection of 17th century English tapestries, found hidden behind wallpaper.
