Basically, I want to merge single cells in a LyX table without using ERT (hopefully) to get something similar to:
To clarify, cells of Headline 1 and 2 are merged vertically and Headline 3 horizontally.
Thank you.

@egreg deserves the glory. Here is a MWE:
\begin{tabular}{l|l|l|l}
a1 & a2 & a3 & a4\\ \hline
b1 & b2 & b3 & \multirow{2}{*}{bc4}\\ \cline{1-3}
c1 & c2 & c3 & \\ \hline
d1 & d2 & d3 & d4
\end{tabular}
Use \multicolumn again!
Note that the rules should not be duplicated, so it is \multicolumn{2}{c|}{...}.
It's also better to make a macro out of repetitive jobs.
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{array}
\newcommand{\Provimi}{\multicolumn{3}{c|}{Provimi}}
\newcommand{\Pauza}{\multicolumn{2}{c|}{Pauza}}
\newcommand{\Vikendi}{\multicolumn{7}{c|}{Vikendi}}
\begin{document}
\begin{center}
\setlength{\extrarowheight}{1.5ex}
\addtolength{\tabcolsep}{-3.5pt}
\begin{tabular} {|l|*{7}{c|}}
\hline
Dita/Koha & 9-10 & 10-11 & 11-12 & 12-1 &1-2 & 2-3 & 3-4 \\ [1.5ex]

The setting to \tabcolsep is to avoid an overfull box; it might be not necessary in your case, depending on the global text width.

I found the answer myself.
In Windows, select cells in question > Right click > "More..." > "Multicolumn" or "Multirow".
