Celtic Site Uncovered at Bratislava Castle

Wednesday, March 18, 2015

BRATISLAVA, SLOVAKIA—The fate of a Celtic archaeological site discovered during the construction of underground garages at Bratislava Castle, home of the Slovak National Museum, is still unclear after 12 hours of discussion yesterday. An expert commission recommended preserving and exhibiting the site in situ. One of its features is located under a replica of an eighteenth-century winter riding school that could be used for public events. “These negotiations were certainly not easy. There are different opinions of the laymen and also experts about the exhibition of excavations, the construction objects or the archaeological solutions of some parts of the reconstruction of Bratislava Castle,” Daniel Guspan, head of the Parliamentary Office, told The Slovak Spectator.
