Likava Castle (Hrad Likava)

Likava was built as a guard castle, the first written mention comes from 1315 and it was successively managed by the Hunyady family, the Illésházy family and the Thököly family.
After extensive reconstruction and rehabilitation works, Hunyady's tower, which houses an exposition on the history of Likavské Castle, has been opened to the public. The upper castle is currently closed to the public, only the lower part, the museum and the courtyard are accessible. It is interesting that the entire palace complex of Likava Castle is among the tallest buildings of its kind in Slovakia.
Likavu vybudovali ako strážny hrad, prvá písomná zmienka pochádza z roku 1315 a spravovali ho postupne Hunyadyovci, Illésházyovci a Thökölyovci.
Po rozsiahlej rekonštrukcii a sanačných prácach bola zatiaľ pre verejnosť otvorená Hunyadyho veža, v ktorej je umiestnená expozícia z dejín Likavského hradu. Horný hrad je momentálne pre verejnosť uzatvorený, prístupná je iba dolná časť, múzeum a nádvorie. Zaujímavosťou je, že celý palácový komplex Hradu Likava patrí medzi najvyššie stavby svojho druhu na Slovensku.
