The Blue Church, a photo from Bratislavsky, West

Photographer's Note

If you go in Bratislava, do not miss this blue church. It is a really fascinating church because of its color and style. Its looks like coming from a fairy tale and make of gingerbread. It not far from the pedestrian area in the center and worth the walk.

Hello Stephane,
I'm afraid I missed this church when I was in Bratislava :(
It's a real beauty and an architectural gem.
With its blue and white facade and tower it looks so bright, even under a dark sky.
You took it from a good angle and framed it well with the branches of the tree.
Best regards, Paul

Hi Stephane,

that's what I did 11 years ago when I was there for the first time.
We asked a old lady the direction: she replied "just give me a free ride with your car and I'll take you there".
funny story :)

the church is quite kitsch...but the atmosphere is fairytale like

Nice shot - I was in Bratislava the past winter, and tried to get a decent shot of this building, but the blue hour turned out to be a terrible time for a photo of a blue church! The colors on this exposure are certainly striking, though I wonder if maybe a bit oversaturated. Still, the highlights get the point of its hue across well.
