History...

Laurinská Street where our apartment house is located was an important part of the medieval town. There was an entrance to this street through the gate of St. Lawrence. It was named after the church of St. Lawrence that was standing in front of the gate. In Middle Ages St. Lawrence was considered a patron of travellers. The Gate of St. Lawrence – Laurinská was situated 300 metres from Apartments L9 and it was one of four gates of medieval Bratislava. It was built in the middle of the 14th century and it was there until 1778 when it was destroyed because of the demolition of internal walls of the town. Location of the medieval gate is represented by the grate that is hanging at the beginning of the street very close to our Apartments L9.

Sometimes Laurinská Street together with Panská was the longest street in the Old town. This street joined the eastern and the western gate of the town and its name was Long Street.

Apartments L9 are situated in a house that was in its ancient history called Paracelzushaus, because according to some historical documents one famous doctor and alchemist Paracelsus Philipus Aureolus Theoprastus Bombastus von Hohenheim reportedly lived here when he visited Bratislava in 1537. He knew how to heal some serious illnesses. He was hosted here in Bratislava by the town council of Bratislava and it is said that he made one interesting experiment. He burned a rose and then from its ash he returned it to its original state.

On the facade of the apartment house Apartments L9 on the corner you can see a guideline from the winter flood from 1850. This line reminds us the former power of the river Danube. This winter flood was one of the strongest floods in Bratislava. Nowadays the house where are apartments L9 is on the list of cultural monuments of the city of Bratislava.
