Krasna Horka Castle
The castle of Krasna Horka dominates to the Gemer region. It is one of the most ancient castles and more quite preserved in Slovakia, with the original furnishings. In the 13th century the castle protected the medieval roads that that crossed the mining zones of Slovenske Rudohorie. The castle was fortified in 1546 according to the project of the Italian architect A. da Vedano.
In the 17th century it was the seat of the Regional district and was rebuilded as a noble residence in renaissance style. In 1817 the castle was seriously damaged from a fire and it was restored by the last descendant of the Andrassy family and transformed in a family museum. The museum contains original furnishings and historical collections. Under the castle is also situated the Andrassy's Mausoleum built in art nouveau style in 1904.
