Slávičie údolie cemetery (Slovak: Cintorín Slávičie údolie, literally "Nightingale Valley") is a cemetery in the Karlova Ves borough in Bratislava, Slovakia. It covers 18.5 ha and is the largest cemetery in Bratislava.

The cemetery was built in 1912 for poorer inhabitants of Bratislava, and it was called "cemetery of the poor". In World War I soldiers were buried there. Today it is the final resting place for prominent Slovak artists, scientists, soldiers, airmen and politicians.[1]
