Oponice Castle is a ruin of a castle dating from the 13th century. The castle gradually belonged to Matúš Čák, Mikuláš Gutkeled, Dezider Kaplay and Mikuláš Ewrs. In 1430 the castle was conquered and damaged by Hussite troops, but it was repaired immediately. It gradually fell into the hands of increasingly poor owners, who restored it during the 16th and early 17th centuries as part of the anti-Turkish defense, but with great financial difficulties. Thanks to these adjustments, he resisted the Turkish onslaught. Disputes over the Apponyi's property between the two brothers contributed to the demise of the castle when the owners left it definitively in 1645.
