Alois Rigele, a master of sculpture and painting, embodies the symbiosis of Classicism and Art Nouveau in his outstanding works. Particularly noteworthy is the figure of "Girl with Deer," which conveys a striking expression of elegance and grace. This sculpture, displayed in Hviezdoslav Square, demonstrates not only Rigele's technical skill but also his ability to capture emotions and the relationship between humans and animals. The meticulous detail and harmonious composition of his works testify to his profound understanding of the human form and nature. In addition to his chamber and figure sculptures, Rigele also created numerous portrait plaques and monuments that vividly bring to life the character and essence of their subjects. However, Rigele's expression extended beyond sculpture—he also left his mark on mural painting, as can be seen in the magnificent choir of the Jesuit Church in Bratislava.

The elegant fountain directly in front of the Presidential Palace draws all eyes with its clear water jets and ornate bronze sculptures. Surrounded by manicured green spaces and benches, it invites you to take a refreshing break while admiring the palace's magnificent façade. An ideal photo stop and place to take a breather on your tour of Bratislava.

The fountain with a double tank made of white material is decorated in the upper part with a sculpture depicting a sitting girl with a doe. The sculpture is made of reddish stone. On the north side, at the girl's foot, there is an inscription engraved: "A. Rigele 1938, R. Kuhmayer 1942". The sculpture is the work of the famous Bratislava sculptor Alojz Rigele, who, however, did not have time to finish it. After his death, another famous Bratislava sculptor, Robert Kuhmayer, completed it in 1942. The theme of the sculpture was based on a Grimm's fairy tale, and accordingly the name "Braček a sestrichka" (Little Brother and Sister) was also used. https://muop.bratislava.sk/fontana-dievca-so-srnkou/d-2391

To the west of the Zwergelloch lies the most famous cave in the Hundsheim Mountains, the Güntherhöhle with the bone gap, both of which are parts of what was originally a single cave room. For reasons of cave and bat protection, the entrances had to be closed. To the south of the cave, in the so-called bone gap, fossil remains of the woolly rhinoceros were found. It entered science as the “Hundsheim rhinoceros” (Rhinoceros Stephanorhinus hundsheimensis).

Most caves do not have natural exits. The surface of the rock also shows hardly any karst features, which is why the caves were discovered late. An exception is the 17 m deep and 41 m long “Zwerglloch” on the southern slope of the Hundsheimer Berg.
