You're standing at the Summer Archbishop's Palace in Bratislava, today the seat of the Slovak government. Start with the elegant Rococo fence and the courtyard of honour behind it. Both were added in the eighteenth century, when the palace got its baroque look. The two side wings are much younger. Architect Emil Belluš added them in 1940 and 1941, and that's when the building took the shape you see now.
