Sándor Petőfi
Slovakia
You find the poet in the Medická záhrada, the garden on Špitálska Street in Bratislava, standing in white marble above the paths. He is larger than life, upright on a smaller pedestal that sits on a broader base, a sabre held in his left hand. This is Sándor Petőfi, the famous Hungarian poet of Slovak origin, and the monument is a national cultural monument, declared on 23 October 1963 and entered in the Central List of Monuments under number 263/3. The garden is only its latest home. The statue has moved several times across the city.
