Lubcha Castle, Medieval castle in Liubča, Belarus.

The castle stands on a man-made hill near the Neman River with four corner towers and rectangular walls measuring 64 by 87 meters.

Jan Kiszka established the fortified residence in 1581 with timber walls and a stone tower, later expanded by the Radziwiłł family with additional towers.

The castle represents architectural transitions from Gothic to Renaissance styles, reflecting the building practices of noble families in the Grand Duchy of Lithuania.

The castle remains under restoration since 2003, with exterior areas accessible for visitors interested in examining the medieval defense structures.

The castle survived multiple conflicts, including a 1655 Cossack attack that left only two structures standing: the barbican and one defensive tower.

Location: Liubča

Inception: 1581

Founders: Jan Kiszka
