About us

Thanks to its geographic and strategic position in the valley of the river Váh since long ago Trenčín has belonged among the most important cities of Slovakia. The most ancient history of the town, dated back to 179, is recalled by the inscription in the Trenčín castle rock that commemorates the famous victory of Markus Aurelius over the Quadi in Laugarício.

 The Trenčín castle that dominates the town is attached to the name of the Hungarian feudalist Matúš Čák. In the Middle Ages the town had various priviledges and rights: it was freed from paying a toll and became a free royal town. Trenčín did not avoid catastrophes and wars but they did not stop its development.


During the first Czechoslovak Republic the biggest project and building company was established in the Trenčín region. Jozef Čevela, the legionary of Czech descent, was its founder. This contractor is the author of several famous dwelling and rental houses, among which the building of the present Aurelius pension belonged. The building was built in 1920 in the late secessian style. After nationalization the building had several proprietors.
In 2002 the building was reconstructed and converted to a pension. In its 10 style-furnished rooms it provides pleasant
and comfortable accommodation, the price includes breakfast, the possibility to use a bar, relaxing, steam and whirlpool bath.

We believe that not only the town with its history and present but even our pension Aurelius will leave pleasant memories and we are looking forward to seeing you again
