Kde je... ? #3

This looks like a photograph that was taken years ago, but it wasn’t. I took it with my old black and white Yashica camera about two years ago.
Where is it?

I think I saw this. I don't remember the buildings but I remember the statues. It's across the street from the Post office in Bratislava, right?

Yes it is. This is taken at Námestie SNP (SNP Square). I'm not sure what the name of the church in the background is but I love it. Since I'm a fan of architecture I know that it was designed and built by The Pittel and Brausewetter company, which was established out of Pressburg (Bratislava) in the 1870s. An old photo of the church I found has the name "Reformationskirche", which is most likely its former German name but I don't know the Slovak name. If someone knows I'd appreciate your feedback. Thanks.
