Prešov ( Slovak pronunciation: [ˈpreʃow] ) is a city in eastern Slovakia . It is the seat of the administrative Prešov Region ( Slovak : Prešovský kraj ). With a population of approximately 91,352, it is the third-largest city in the country. There are many tourist attractions in Presov such as castles, pools, churches, and the beautiful city.
Historically, the city has been known in German as Eperies (between 1938 and 1945 also Preschau ), Eperjes in Hungarian , Fragopolis in Latin , Preszów in Polish , Peryeshis in Romany , Пряшев ( Pryashev ) in Russian and Пряшів ( Priashiv ) in Rusyn and Ukrainian . Both eper and fragum; frago- in Hungarian and Latin, respectively, mean 'strawberry.' However, the names for the city in Slavic languages has another etymology.
The city is a showcase of Baroque , Rococo and Gothic architecture . In the historical center, the main street is lined with churches and other buildings built in these styles. In the suburbs, however, the Soviet influence is clearly evident through the massive concrete panel buildings ( paneláky ) of the housing estates ( sídliska ) and the Sekčov district. More Soviet -style architecture is seen in the government buildings near the city center.
