Originally built in the 12th century, [[Lendava Castle]] is one of the most important historic monuments in the region. The castle is first mentioned in the records in 1278 as property of the Bànffy family. However, the present-day Baroque appearance of the castle dates from 1690–1707, following the withdrawal of the the Turks from the area, when the Esterhazys had it rebuilt to form an L-shaped building as a sign of their loyalty to Emperor Leopold I. The castle became a showpiece of Baroque architecture, and remained in the hands of the Esterhàzy family until World War II. | Originally built in the 12th century, [[Lendava Castle]] is one of the most important historic monuments in the region.
