In February 2013, thanks to cooperation with CzechTourism Slovakia and the Czech Centre in Bratislava, an exhibition by the recognized Czech photographer Jindřich Štreit was held in the Town Library with the name “Gateway of Hope” (Brána nádeje). In it the artist follows various Churches throughout the course of time. He shows people changing, humorous and sad moments and doesn’t forget to remind us how the communist regime treated people spiritually, but also what they did to Church and historic monuments and landmarks. This collection of unique photographs by Jindřich Štreit is also a black and white showcase of the everyday concerns and cares of ordinary people.
