Developer JTRE has announced that Tatra banka Group will relocate its headquarters to Pribinova 1, an eight-storey office building under development in the Eurovea City district of Bratislava. The building will offer more than 20,000 sqm of leasable office space and nearly 2,000 sqm of retail space, and is designed to serve as a connection point between Bratislava's historic centre and the Danube waterfront.
Pribinova 1 is targeting LEED Platinum and LEED Zero Carbon certification, with the building designed to operate on a carbon-neutral basis. It will also pursue the WELL Health-Safety Rating. Energy performance features include a Thermally Active Building System (TABS) for ceiling-based heating and cooling, geothermal boreholes, mechanical ventilation with heat recovery, a double-skin façade with integrated shading, and energy-recovery lifts. The landscaping incorporates rainwater retention and infiltration systems, while a recessed two-storey podium will create shaded public space for pedestrians.
The building's stepped upper floors will create outdoor terraces totalling 1,300 sqm, with a typical office floor providing close to 3,300 sqm of space. The ground floor will include food and beverage outlets with outdoor seating, retail and service units, and cycling facilities with changing rooms and electric bicycle charging stations.
"When selecting our future headquarters, Tatra banka Group considered several options. We assessed a wide range of criteria, with particular emphasis on the quality of the working environment, the flexibility of the space, the location and the project's environmental credentials. Our goal is to create a modern base that will serve our clients and employees for decades to come," said Simona Mikloševičová, spokesperson for Tatra banka. Pavel Pelikán, JTRE's CEO, added: "Securing an occupier as demanding and sophisticated as Tatra banka confirms the value of the ambitious sustainability goals we established for Pribinova 1."
Pribinova 1 received zoning approval in October 2025 and a building permit is expected in September 2026. Construction is anticipated to begin in the second quarter of 2027, with completion scheduled for 2030.
