Jakabov palác
Slovakia
Stand on the corner of Mlynská and Štefánikova streets in Košice and the first thing you notice is the mismatch. A neo-Gothic building, all pointed detail and stone, sits beside a busy four-lane road. That road is the clue to what has been lost. Until 1968 the palace stood on the bank of the Mlynský náhon, the mill race, and the source describes the setting it made as a beautiful idyll. The race was abolished in 1968, and ever since the building has stood at the edge of traffic rather than water.
