The Zobor Charter of 1111 is Slovakia's oldest preserved original charter, closely tied to its place of writing and entire content. King Coloman, through this judgment charter issued before September 1, 1111, confirmed the claims of the Benedictine abbey on Nitra's Zobor to a third of the revenues from all tolls in Nitra, Trenčín, and along the entire Váh River, which the Benedictines had received from King Stephen I. From the perspective of the history of education, it holds special significance as the earliest known mention of a teacher in our territory.

The Fortifications of Bratislava Castle - Take a look at this unique engraving of Bratislava Castle, showing how it appeared before 1663. During this period, the castle was a vital part of Hungary's defense system and served as a center of political and social life.

Imagine the nobles, soldiers, and townsfolk who lived here, with the castle standing as the dominant feature of this part of Slovakia. Even today, it reminds us of the rich history of our capital city.
