Lyckå (Lyckeby) Castle was built in 1545-1560 according the order of Kristian III of Denmark. It replaced a small castle manor and was purposed against the rebellious peasants. Battles between Denmark and Sweden were fought in Lyckå in 1507 and 1564. The castle was demolished in 1600 after Lyckå lost its city privileges to Kristianopel. Kristian IV of Denmark ordered to use castle stones to build new fortifications in Kristianopel. Today foundations of castle and two corner towers remain.
References:The Beckov castle stands on a steep 50 m tall rock in the village Beckov. The dominance of the rock and impression of invincibility it gaves, challenged our ancestors to make use of these assets. The result is a remarkable harmony between the natural setting and architecture.
The castle first mentioned in 1200 was originally owned by the King and later, at the end of the 13th century it fell in hands of Matúš Èák. Its owners alternated - at the end of the 14th century the family of Stibor of Stiborice bought it.
The next owners, the Bánffys who adapted the Gothic castle to the Renaissance residence, improved its fortifications preventing the Turks from conquering it at the end of the 16th century. When Bánffys died out, the castle was owned by several noble families. It fell in decay after fire in 1729.
The history of the castle is the subject of different legends.
