Flag and Coat of Arms of Lukavica are on this
website. Village Lukavica is situated 340m above sea level in Central
Slovakia in the district Zvolen. It is located in the Zvolenská hill country
13km to the north of Zvolen. According to the last census 178 inhabitants
live in the village. The first written reference originates from 1250.
Village belonged to the castle county, but from the 16th century there
were Curia's areas. Inhabitants were famous as keeper of birds. Matej Bel
had organized competitions in catching birds taking place here every year
in the autumn.
