redoute redoute

In the place of the present-day Redoute, a watchtower used to stand in the past which the Thököly family, the owner of the town castle, let rebuild into a mansion in the 17th century. In 1705 – 1708, it became the printing house of Matej Glaser Vitrarius. In 1818, the building was rebuilt into a Redoute in the style of Classicism. There is a Latin inscription on its facade: VigILIIs hospItIbV aC obLeCta MentIs DestInata (Intended for guards, guests and entertainment). The tower was removed in 1846.

When the Redoute was being rebuilt, a burgher´s house No. 3 in Hlavné námestie (the Main Square street) was attached to it. The house has the Renaissance portal with the initials S.W. and a stonecutter´s sign.
