Top 5 Filming Locations in Slovakia
Bratislava
The cityscape of Bratislava is characterized by medieval towers, grandiose 20th-century buildings, old towns, and many ruined castles around the border of the city. It’s located on the borders of Austria and Hungary, making it the only national capital that borders between two countries. “Red Sparrow”, “Behind the Enemy Lines”, and “The Peacemaker” were shot here in Bratislava.
Orava Castle
Orava Castle is a castle situated on a high rock above the Orava river in the village of Oravský Podzámok. It is one of the most beautiful castles in Slovakia. The castle was built in the Kingdom of Hungary in the thirteenth century. Many scenes of “Nosferatu” were filmed here, the castle representing Count Orlok's Transylvanian castle.
Trnava
Trnava is a city in the west of Slovakia. It’s located south of the slopes of the Small Carpathian Mountains. Trnava is filled by many churches, as the seat of the Slovak archbishopric is located here, it is called the "Rome of Slovakia". Any type of film production would look great filming in Trnava.
High Tatras
The High Tatras or the High Tatra Mountains are a mountain range along the border of northern Slovakia and southern Poland. They are a range of the Tatra Mountains chain. Most of the range, and all the highest peaks, are in Slovakia. A Netflix film “A Boy Called Christmas” was shot in the High Tatras.
Štrbské pleso
Štrbské pleso is a scenic mountain lake of glacial origin and a top tourist destination in the High Tatras, Slovakia. It is the second-largest glacial lake on the Slovak side of the High Tatras. However, judging from the view it’s second to none, especially in winter when water becomes frozen. This location would be great for any type of film production in any season.
