Discover this mid-17th century beauty inside the Primate’s Palace courtyard. The fountain is inspired by local legends and depicts knight George killing a three-headed dragon. St. George, the patron of knights, is modeled after Archbishop of Esztergom Juraj Lippay, who ordered the statue. It was moved to the current location in 1930 from the Archbishop Summer Palace (the current seat of the Government Office of the Slovak Republic)

It's fun to find this place by accident not knowing where to look. Nicely hidden but well taken care off. Good to relax a bit from the crowds.

Hidden gem in the middle of the city. So cosy, romantic and pink. ;)
Great place to have a nice break.

St. George fountain hidden in the museum’s courtyard, built in 18th century. Very nice sculpture and well maintained building.

When you see some gate, you can enter and find some hidden treasure, like this fountain and statue.

Saint George (died 23 April 303), also George of Lydda, was a Christian who is venerated as a saint in Christianity. According to tradition he was a soldier in the Roman army. Saint George was a soldier of Cappadocian Greek origin and member of the Praetorian Guard for Roman emperor Diocletian, who was sentenced to death for refusing to recant his Christian faith. He became one of the most venerated saints and megalomartyrs in Christianity, and he has been especially venerated as a military saint since the Crusades. He is respected by Christians, Druze, as well as some Muslims as a martyr of monotheistic faith.

Uno de los personajes más famosos e incógnitos al mismo tiempo en Calatuña, y Aragón en España tienen su dia como el día se san Jordi, y tiene un país en su honor Georgia sin embargo no se que se escriba mucho de él sin embargo, he aquí una representación

Tényleg egy rejtett kincs ez a szökőkút.
A prímási palota udvarán található. A 17. századból származik és Lippay Juraj érseket képviseli. Szent György lóháton harcol egy lándzsás háromfejű sárkánnyal. A sárkányfejek vízköpőkként vannak megjelenítve. A homokkő szökőkút nyolcszögletű medencében található. Eredetileg a Nyári Érseki Palota kertjében állt, ahol más műalkotások is helyet kaptak. 1930-ban az udvarra költöztették. Azóta itt látható ez a szökőkút.

Fontana uprostred areálu primacialneho paláca poskytuje príjemný únik od hlučnejšieho ulíc. Je tu lavička z ktorej je na fontánu pekný výhľad. Svoje čaro dodáva miestu aj návšteva večer.

Фонтан Святого Георгия Победоносца расположен в центре Братиславы. Установлен во внутреннем дворе средневекового дворцового комплекса Примаса.
Георгий Победоносец был великим христианским великомучеником, особо почитаемый среди верующих. Согласно легенде, Георгий был арестован, замучен и казнен во времена правления императора Диоклетиана в 304 году.
Фонтан в его честь смоделирован и возведен в стиле Ренессанса. Скульптура Георгия Победоносца выполнена в традиционном виде: восседающего в полный рост на коне Святого, прозающего копьем дракона.

Známa Bratislavská fontána. Námet vychádza zo starých povestí mesta. Je to renesančná fontána na nádvorí Primaciálneho paláca znázorňuje boj Svätého Juraja s drakom. Pochádza zo 17. stor. a predstavuje patróna arcibiskupa Juraja Lippaya. Svätý Juraj na koni kopijou zápasí s trojhlavým drakom. Okolo je plno lavičiek na sedenie
