Did you know that...?
... there used to be a natural amphitheatre directly below the windows of Bratislava Castle?
Production of trophies
17/07/2010
Clay is used as the basic material for the production of trophies.
The 1:1 trophy mock-up is first made of clay and, subsequently, individual parts are grouped in the sculptural group. Plaster casting is then used as a mould for cast stone; when the mould is removed, the cast is (after necessary corrections) installed on the Triumphal Gates and/or Guardhouses of the Bratislava Castle. A total of 14 trophies will be installed.
