Historical facts
The manor built on the site of a smaller castle was completed in its present form by Andrej Koháry - a Hontian robe. The building was designed by Viennese architect Johann Enzenhofer, the beautiful frescoes in the chapel and on the staircase are the work of Anton Schmidt - an Austrian painter working in Banská Štiavnica. For the Koháry family, the manor house was a family residence, the Coburg family used it as a country residence, especially in the summer and during hunting.
The last user of the mansion was the former Bulgarian Tsar Ferdinand Coburg.
The entire area was declared a National Cultural Monument in 1985.
