Bratislava at night

The UFO Tower in Bratislava, Slovakia is an iconic landmark situated atop the Bridge of the Slovak National Uprising (Most SNP). This unique flying saucer-shaped structure was constructed between 1967 and 1972 based on designs by architects J. Lacko and A. Tesár. Perched 95m above the Danube River, the 7th largest suspension bridge in the world, the UFO Tower has become an integral part of the Bratislava skyline. Originally opened in the 1970s and voted Building of the Century in Slovakia in 2001, the tower underwent renovations in 2005. A restaurant with 80 seats, two modern bars with capacity for 60 guests, and an observation deck with panoramic views up to 100km were added. The UFO Tower is now a member of the World Federation of Great Towers, recognised internationally as a symbol of Bratislava. The iconic tower can be spotted in the background of every postcard, an unmistakable fixture in the capital's urban landscape.
