Bratislava City Museum’s extensive collection includes a typologically diverse set of objects of religious character. It includes a valuable collection of objects relating to the cult of saints, such as reliquaries and monastic works, also referred to as ‘flowers of patience’ in scholarly literature. Several works come from churches and monasteries in Bratislava (Ursulines, Sisters of St Elizabeth, Brothers Hospitallers of Saint John of God) and were probably home-made. The collection is primarily composed of artefacts from the 18th century, with some examples of 19th century works.
The paper presents a comprehensive overview of this so-far relatively little-known group of arts and crafts objects. It provides a more detailed typological classification and attempts to place them in the broader context of works of a similar kind in the Central European region.
