 In the Interwar period, Count Henrik Apponyi donated it to the Oponice municipality, in exchange for an exemption from municipal tax.Henrik Apponyi spent much of his time and money on traveling and hunting in exotic locales, and also donated many of his hunting trophies to the museum (whose exact name is Museum of Apponyi and Hunting - "Apponyiho Poľovnícke Múzeum").The museum, which was created in 1993, has collections on the village's history and Apponyi family history, as well as remains from a plane that crashed in the nearby hills during World War II.
