The House of the Good Shepherd is a stunning Rococo-style townhouse located in the Old Town of Bratislava, Slovakia, built between 1760 and 1765 by master-mason Matej Hollrigl. This narrow building, notable for its preserved original state, houses the Museum of Clocks, showcasing an impressive collection of antique timepieces from the 17th to early 20th centuries, with a focus on 18th and 19th century clocks made by local artisans. The ground floor also features a pub, making it a lively spot for visitors. Its name derives from the statue of Christ, the Good Shepherd, adorning its corner. Recognized as one of the most beautiful Rococo buildings in Central Europe, it offers a glimpse into the rich history and craftsmanship of Bratislava.
