Slovenská televízia (STV, formerly also ST; German: "Slovak television") is a television company in Slovakia. Until 2010 it was the public television company in Slovakia. At the beginning of 2011 it was merged with the broadcasting company to form Rozhlas a televízia Slovenska (RTVS, "Slovak Broadcasting").

Slovenská televízia produces two programs:

  • : 1 - Jednotka ("Das Erste"; formerly STV 1)
  • : 2 - Dvojka ("The Second"; formerly STV 2)
  • : 3 - Trojka ("The Third"; formerly STV 3), sports channel (between 2008 and 2011), archive channel (since 2019)

history

On December 31, 1992, Czechoslovak TV was legally dissolved together with the Czechoslovak state and replaced by the two national public broadcasters Česká televize and Slovenská televízia, both of which had already existed for a year in parallel with Czechoslovak TV.

Physically, the later Slovak television existed in the form of Slovak studios (Bratislava, Košice, Banská Bystrica) of Czechoslovak television already before 1992. The broadcasting operation from Bratislava began in 1956 and the second channel of Czechoslovak television was (almost) entirely Slovak-speaking.

On June 30, 2011, the third program, which had only been on the air since August 8, 2008, was discontinued due to excessive costs. At Christmas 2019, the third network was revived, but with a different program. However, a sports program is to be offered again in the future.
