Kremnica...

After checking into the conference hotel, I went on a tour arranged for spouses to the town of Kremnica. home to around 5,500 people.

There was a small group of just four of us plus the local tour guide.

The city center was picturesque...

...with a monumental Baroque plague column on the main square.

We took a short walk around and then stopped for a coffee while waiting for our appointed time to tour the mint.
