Public plea to suspend the construction of garages, riding stables and garden in area of Bratislava

Bratislava Castle is a beautiful treasure of world heritage. The recent finds of Celtic and Roman architectural remains, not to mention the Celtic coin hoard, Roman bronze signet, and other artifacts have extended our knowledge of Slovak and Central European history by almost 1000 years before Bratislava was first mentioned in writing in 907 CE. It would be a shame to simply cover up the 1st century BCE Celtic kilns, Roman pavements and water tanks when it might be possible to integrate them into the design of the planned underground garage and to extend the exhibits of the Slovak National Museum that way. In Athens, Greece, archaeological finds from digging new subway tunnels were integrated into the design of the Metro stations and have become tourist attractions in their own right. It would be great if visitors of Bratislava Castle could similarly experience the amazingly varied and long history of occupation on Bratislava's Castle hill.
