The city of Poprad, welcoming both domestic and international visitors, is often referred to as the gateway to the High Tatras. Its most historically significant part is Spišská Sobota, now considered one of the best-preserved medieval urban complexes in Slovakia.
At the heart of its uniqueness lies an oval-shaped square surrounded by rows of elegant bourgeois houses. Dominating the square is the magnificent Roman Catholic Church of St. George, accompanied by a Renaissance bell tower standing right beside it.
In the nearby park, you’ll also find a historic grain measure, a reminder of the important fairs once held in Spišská Sobota. Today, this charming district is a romantic place where you can savor excellent cuisine in stylish restaurants, enjoy quality coffee in cozy cafés, and soak in its timeless atmosphere.
