Languages of publication
Abstracts
In 1524 brothers John, George and Stephen divided the manor house (curia nobilitaris) of their father in the village Lukavica into three parts. Only the first of the brothers remained living in Lukavica and was still a lower-ranking member of the nobility. The division of the manor describes the interior spaces of the house: the black room, the old kitchen, the room behind the kitchen, the hall and the room with lighting. The house also had a cellar. In the courtyard there was a piggery, stables, barn and a chicken coop. The entrance consisted of a gate with a small tower. Another black room, a brewery, a pond and a mill belonged to the nobleman's house. The division is exceptionally detailed and it is a unique source in the region of the Zvolen County. The charter has been preserved in a copy from the middle of the 16th century. The manor and its accessories became the subject of disputes and repeated divisions over the following generations. Female members of the family, in some cases married to non-nobles, played an important role in these disputes. The manor house in Lukavica still existed at the end of the 17th century after the change of owners. It is possible that it was subsequently converted into a farmstead, which still exists to the north of the village.
