Cabrad Castle is a castle ruin in Slovakia near the village of Cabradsky Vrbovok, in the southeast of Krupina. It is surrounded by the Cabrad nature reserve. This originally sentry castle first mentioned in 1276 was built to guard the road leading to many northern Hungarian mining towns. In the 16th century it was rebuilt to the counter-Turk fort, which successfully resisted all Turkish raids. The Kohary family acquired the castle in the 17th century.
