Belházy House

Belházy House – an elegant Renaissance-Baroque gem on the corner of Andrej Sládkovič Street. Originally built in 1616 by Sigmund Eggenstein and later rebuilt by Mayor Ján Belházy, the house fascinated with its oriel window, loggia, and Baroque arcade corridor attached to the original structure.

In the 18th and 19th centuries, it served as the heart of mining education – housing the department of chemistry and physics of the Mining Academy, including laboratories that influenced methods of teaching chemistry at universities worldwide.

Today, it ranks among the most beautiful and significant architectural monuments of the town – distinguished by its sophisticated blending of Renaissance details with Baroque elegance.
