The published study analyses the fi ghts of the Kysek family against the Hungarian King Ladislaus IV. and Albrecht I. of Habsburg, the Duke of Austria and Styria in the 1280’s.This family, having the basis in the Western Hungarian border area and centre at the Kysek castle (Hungarian Kőszeg, German Güns) used the chaos in the country for successful resistance against their own monarch. The king did not manage to defeat them neither in 1284 at the Bernstein castle nor during the initially successful campaign of 1286 – 1287. The family’s resistance was only suppressed, following initial minor defeats (in 1284 – 1287), by the Duke Albrecht of Habsburg, in a massive and scathing campaign in 1289. Kyseks lost practically all their positions in the west of the country and without the violent murder of King Ladislaus IV. a year later, this situation would probably have remained.
