5 - Devinska Nova Ves

Just few miles north from the Bratislava is located another very popular place, mostly among inhabitants of Bratislava. The Devin castle and Sandberg.
And just near them is located city of Devinska Nova ves. Most of buildings are new family houses and old socialist tenements. It is also known for
"Massacre in Devinska Nova Ves", when insane gunman killed eight people, in february. The Sandberg, what is just near the city is most famous Slovak archaelogical locality, where can be still found fossils of shells, monkeys and whales from early cenosoicum.

Near is also located famous Devin Castle, build in 8.th century and rebuilt many times, but now it is ruined. The small tower of Devin was before the Slovakia entered Eurozone on slovak "50 halier" coin.

Just near this castle river Morave joins Danube, in area known as "Devin Gate".

Devinska nova Ves is small city, often considered part or suburb of The Bratislava.

It is not very visited, but many inhabitants of Bratislava have gardens there, and most of people there travel everyday to work to Bratislava.
Finally, I present you the Mosaic of part of Devinska Nova Ves. Enjoy!
