See pass compatibility below ↓Overview & History
The UFO Observation Deck sits atop the single pylon of Most SNP, the cable-stayed bridge that crosses the Danube beside Bratislava's Old Town, nicknamed the 'UFO Bridge' for its flying-saucer-shaped summit. An elevator lifts visitors roughly 95m above the river to a 360-degree viewing platform, which also houses a restaurant. It's one of the best vantage points in the city for views over the Old Town, the castle, and the Danube.
What to See: Top Highlights
The Saucer-Shaped Deck
The bridge's distinctive disc-shaped summit, supported entirely by its single pylon and cable stays, is a landmark of Bratislava's modern skyline.
360-Degree City Views
From roughly 95m up, the deck looks out over the Old Town, Bratislava Castle, and the Danube in every direction.
The Restaurant
A restaurant occupies part of the same structure — ordering a main course there gives free access to the deck, independent of a ticket.

Does the Bratislava CARD Cover the UFO Observation Deck?
Compare Bratislava PassesPartly — the Bratislava CARD gives a 20% discount on the adult admission (confirmed on the card's own discount page: €12.50 to €10.00), not free entry. This is the one tracked attraction in this city where the card discounts rather than fully covers the ticket.
Bratislava CARD
Discounted. 20% discount off the standard ticket. 20% off the adult admission price, confirmed on the Bratislava CARD's own discount page (EUR 12.50 to EUR 10.00, an exact 20% computation). A separate official city-tourism page states 25% instead — the pass's own transactional page was treated as authoritative for its own discount term; check the current rate when booking.
