RE: Kežmarok Castle / Hrad Kežmarok

Those rooms look amazing! Maybe they don't have the most beautiful story but they sure look fascinating for the 21st century! As for the story about the woman being walled by her husband, it sounds so familiar! We have a similar case in Romania but where the woman was placed in the structure of a church with the mention that there was no other way to build the church and make it stand still! Crazy, huh?!

Crazy. The Middle Ages was an extremely cruel period.

There was a reason why Beata Lasky was let by her husband. Tourism was just an excuse. He liked to spend money and she had it. She was twenty years older than him. He needed to get rid of her. During the six years that she was imprisoned there, her husband lost all his possessions and also the castle.

That's a crazy story! And when you think that there are still people thinking that 21st century is hard... nope.
