The castle and chapel: local history

Lukavec Castle was fully reconstructed between 2019 and 2020. Its history, however, goes back further: a fortress founded by Mikuláš Kuneš in 1543 stood on this site. The castle complex dates from the second half of the 18th century. Several historical periods thus meet in Lukavec—from the 16th-century fortress and the castle complex to the more recent history of the chapel.

The Chapel of Saint Procopius is also located in Lukavec. It was repaired after the 2002 flood and reconsecrated at the end of 2003. A celebratory Mass was held there on December 26, 2003. Those interested in local history will find a different historical perspective here than at the castle: the recorded events span from the founding of the older fortress to the chapel's reconsecration.
