Štúrovo is best known within Slovakia for the Vadaš Thermal Resort, a major bathing complex on the Danube’s left bank. The town faces the Hungarian city of Esztergom across the river, where the dome of Esztergom Basilica defines the skyline. The Mária Valéria Bridge reconnects the two towns; first opened in 1895, it was rebuilt and reopened in 2001 after its wartime destruction. This cross-border setting gives Štúrovo a distinctly Danubian character, with riverside walks and close links to a long-established Hungarian ecclesiastical centre.
