UFO Observation Deck

Also known as UFO vyhliadková veža

The flying-saucer-shaped structure atop the SNP Bridge stands 85 meters above the Danube and offers a 360-degree panorama over Bratislava, the river, and into Austria on clear days. A single elevator ride takes visitors up in 45 seconds. The deck includes a restaurant and an open-air viewing platform.

The UFO Observation Deck sits 85 meters above the Danube atop Bratislava’s Most SNP bridge, built 1967-1972, with a 360-degree view over the city, the river, and into Austria on clear days. Elevator access in 45 seconds; restaurant on the deck. The bridge was built at the cost of demolishing Bratislava’s historic Jewish quarter; the cleared area below the castle hill is visible from the deck. Open daily; check u-f-o.sk for current hours and prices. About 15 minutes on foot from the Old Town center.
