- House of the Good Shepherd
The House of the Good Shepherd ( _sk. Dom U dobrého pastiera) is a narrow, Rococo-style building in Bratislava, Slovakia, located below Bratislava Castle. It was built in 1760-1765 by notable Bratislava master-mason Matej (Matthäus) Hollrigl.[Jančušková, p. 318] The lower part of the building was used for commercial purposes, the upper part for living. It is one of the few buildings in the area below Bratislava Castle to retain their original state.
