The Slovak Radio Building / Slovenský Rozhlas is an unmissable feature in the urban landscape of Bratislava.  It is an inverted pyramid of steel frame construction,  designed by Štefan Svetko, Štefan Ďurkovič, and Barnabáš Kissling during the height of socialist realism.

After more than twelve years of protracted planning and a further ten years of construction, the building opened in 1985. It was to have been part of a series of large public structures in a greenbelt along a planned circular boulevard.

It’s probably the most controversial structure in Bratislava, but love it or hate it, it is impossible to deny its impressive scale and architectonic composition. In 2017, the structure was named a national cultural monument for being an excellent example of Central European Modernist architecture.

It is also the home of the Slovak Radio Symphony Orchestra, who themselves have a prolific output of recordings.
