Lúčky – History, Winegrowing and Cycling

In Lúčky, a clearly identified road location, a specific cycling route and historical traces from the church, winegrowing, music, festival culture and archaeology exist side by side. Each reference is tied to specific names, dates and places.

Location and connections

Lúčky is located directly on Road I/50, a Class I road connecting Michalovce and Sobrance. Its location is therefore described by a classified road and two named cities.

Cycling

Cycling is possible on the “Hrádza–Lúčky–Jovsa” route. The activity is thus part of a specifically named connection whose name mentions Lúčky together with Hrádza and Jovsa.

Church and history

The ecclesiastical history of Lúčky includes several clearly dated references. As early as 1618, Lúčky had a Calvinist church and a Calvinist congregation. Lúčky was the seat of a medieval Roman Catholic parish. The newly built church in Lúčky was solemnly consecrated on October 11, 1959. The names and dates show that the ecclesiastical references come from different historical periods.

Winegrowing

Winegrowing also appears in several historical references. A document from 1336 mentions a local vineyard in Lúčky in writing. In 1715, wine continued to be grown in Lúčky; the vineyard area corresponded to the area that 15 people could cultivate in one day. The measure of labor required is an integral part of the recorded size specification.

Culture

The cultural sphere includes a dated festival, a musical ensemble and archaeological objects. The “Folklórne slávnosti” held in Lúčky on August 10, 2014, were the eleventh edition. “Lučane” is a men’s vocal group founded in 2002. Ceramic shards and stone tools from various archaeological sites in the municipality were displayed in a room in Lúčky’s former kindergarten. The cultural references thus range from a public event and singing to objects from the municipality’s history.
