Good to know about Košice

Košice first appears in a surviving written record as Villa Cassa in 1230, but an established settlement with a parish church already existed. Its medieval urban development combined an older Slavic settlement with German colonisation encouraged by King Béla IV after the Mongol invasion. The emerging town subsequently acquired privileges and defensive walls.

The writer Sándor Márai was a native of Košice and repeatedly portrayed the city in his books. A memorial exhibition on Mäsiarska Street preserves his connection with the city through biographical material and recordings of his voice, alongside those of his wife Lola and younger brother Géza Radványi.

A local legend explains the Beggar's House on Hlavná Street as the home of a man who collected enough alms to build an imposing townhouse. The figure on its roof supposedly bows in gratitude to the city's inhabitants. The story is folklore rather than an established account of the building's ownership or construction.

Košice was the first Slovak city to host White Night, or Biela noc, an autumn festival that places contemporary art in public spaces after dark. Light installations, projections and performances temporarily change familiar streets and buildings. The event extends cultural activity beyond conventional galleries and makes nighttime walking part of the festival experience.
