Krásna HôrkaPart of the National Heritage Reserve. The most beautiful and best preserved castle in the Gemer region. The former gothic structure was built at the beginning of the 14th century and rebuilt to an aristocrat renaissance style about 1578 - 1583. It was owned by the Andrassy family from the 16th century, the creators of the beautiful museum and is now open to the general public. Approximately 1.5 km from the castle there is a french park and mausoleum with sarcofages and mummies of Dionyz and Frantiska Andrassy, the last owners of the castle. The history of the Krásna Hôrka Castle is linked with the history of the Upper Gemer region. It is linked with its mineral wealth. The fertile valleys of the Slaná River have been inhabited since the Bronze Age. In the 13th century an important trade route arose here, leading from Transylvania through Košice town to the Spiš region and to the Polish guard castle Krásna Hôrka.Construction of the Krásna Hôrka Castle was begun by the Bebek family, who were among the most powerful of the mediaeval nobility. The construction was continued by the Máriássy family (as temporary owners) and again by the Bebek family who governed here from the mid-13th century through until 1566.From the original guard tower the castle fortifications were built – the oldest, the Gothic core of the castle. A private army was maintained at the fortified castle. Following 1567 the castle, with its accompanying manor, passed into the ownership of the royal court and was administered by castle captains.In 1578 the first of the Andrássy family – Peter entered Krásna Hôrka as castle captain. Later in 1642, Peter’s grandson Matej received the Krásna Hôrka Castle, together with its accompanying manor, from Ferdinand III into hereditary ownership.
