A bit of history

Found a bit of interesting information about The Blue Church in a tourist magazine provided by the hotel, called Enjoy Bratislava. Here is an excerpt:
Blue Church
Bezručova street is graced with the magnificent building of St. Elizabeth’s Church, which all Bratislavans call the Blue Church. The church is dedicated to the Hungarian St. Elizabeth, the wife of Franz Joseph I, born in Bratislava castle. Its construction began in 1909, and one year later, the church cross was solemnly raised. Countess Szapáry, who launched its construction, had St. Elizabeth’s relics brought from Vienna and placed at the main alter. The Blue Church is a gem of Art Nouveau architecture. It gained its nickname thanks to its bright blue ceramics and blue roof tiles. Above the entrance there is an Italian mosaic representing the legend of St. Elizabeth and the roses. The rose motif is also the main ornamental element of the church’s interior. (The church and a nearby school building were designed by Ödön Lechner.)
