Bratislava - Academia Istropolitana Slovakia's first university, Slovakia

Displayed:   times.

(correct name: Universitas Istropolitana), founded by education-promoting Hungarian King Matthias, is now part of the city's Academy of Music and Drama (Fine Arts). The Czech and Slovak lands and their rulers have always been exceptionally fond of astronomers, at least in comparison to other European courts. German humanist and astronomer J. Muller-Regiomontanus lectured at the university, as Danish astronomer Tycho Brahe would later find a home at the Bohemian (Czech) court.
