Mesto Bytca lezi na strednom Povazi v udoli Vahu, uprostred Bytcianskej doliny. Pred rokom 1223
patrila prva polovica majetku Bytce Nitrianskemu biskupstvu. Prva pisomna zmienka o Bytci (terra
Bycha) je z roku 1234. Rode, Boleslav, Kracun a Mykud predali druhu polovicu svojho majetku Bytca
nitrianskemu biskupovi Jakubovi za 24 hrivien striebra.
V roku 1378 dostala Bytca vysady zemepanskeho mestecka. Najvacsi rozkvet zaznamenalo mesto, ked
patrilo rodine Thurzovcov, na konci 16. a zaciatkom 17. storocia. Thurzovci boli jednym z
najmocnejsich feudalnych rodov v Uhorsku a Juraj Thurzo, uhorsky palatin, mal svoje sidlo v Bytci.
Thurzovci postavili zamok, ktory patri medzi klenoty renesancneho stavitelstva na Slovensku.
