Nemecký veslársky klub

Nemecký veslársky klub is a rowing club building with smooth white walls, large glass windows, and horizontal lines arranged in a ship-like form. The ground floor holds boat storage and repair facilities, while the upper floor contains changing rooms and club spaces opening onto a wide terrace.

Architect Josef Konrad designed the building in 1931 for the Donau rowing association, a German-speaking club. The project was part of the early modernist movement transforming Slovak architecture.

The club reflects how sporting associations once expressed their identity through building design and the interests of the local German-speaking community. The structure was meant to echo the sport and the river connection.

The building sits along Viedenská cesta with easy access and is simple to locate. Visitors can explore the exterior and outdoor areas, though interior spaces may not always be open to the public.

Two rows of ribbon windows stack above rounded corners while round portholes and horizontal pipe railings reinforce a nautical design language. These details make the structure resemble a beached vessel.
