    The jewel of Novohrad can be found in the south of Slovakia, in the village of Halič, 8 km from the town of Lučenec. The origins of the history of the castle in Halič date back to the 12th century, and from the 16th century until the mid-20th century it was owned by the noble Forgach family. In 2018, after 10 years of reconstruction work, the Renaissance-Baroque Castle Hotel**** Galicia Nueva opened its doors to the general public.

    Roadbook

    In the village of Halič, you can park directly under the castle on Zámocká street, where there is a larger parking lot. From there, it is only a few meters' walk to Halič Castle (about 5 minutes). If you want to extend your walk, head to the castle park, which is 2.4 km from the castle, or take the shortened 300 m route via the stairs leading directly from the castle to the park. The extensive English park with a pond provides a perfect space for relaxation and regeneration under the tree canopies.
