A New Space in the Heart of Kosice Bears the Signature of Our Talented Member

MarathonPoint Kosice

As part of the annual Kosice City Day celebrations, which traditionally take place at the turn of April and May, we had the opportunity to attend a very special event – the grand opening of the new MarathonPoint space, located right on Main Street. This place is not only a meeting point, but also a tribute to the rich history of the International Peace Marathon. MarathonPoint priamo na Hlavnej ulici. Tento priestor nie je len miestom stretnutí, ale aj poctou bohatej histórii Medzinárodného maratónu mieru.

The project was created in collaboration between the City of Kosice and the Marathon Club, but for us it holds a special meaning for another reason. The design and realization of the space was led by our very own member Vincent, who, together with his wife, brought a unique character to the space. With an eye for detail and a deep respect for the history of Kosice, they created an environment that beautifully connects the past with the present.

MarathonPoint offers a view of the iconic Singing fountain and is just steps away from St. Elisabeth Cathedral and the State Theatre. It is dedicated to the International Peace Marathon – the oldest marathon in Europe, which is an integral part of our city's identity. This space serves as a tribute to its rich legacy and helps preserve the spirit of this exceptional event.

On Tuesday evening, we couldn’t miss the festive opening. Together with the mayor, prominent athletes, and other notable personalities of Košice, we explored the new space, guided by Vincent himself. He shared with us the story behind the design, the materials used, and the ideas that shaped the project.

We are proud that such a remarkable space carries the mark of our member. Thank you, Vincent!
