Oponice
Oponice (Hungarian: Appony) is a municipality and village in the Topoľčany District of the Nitra Region, Slovakia. In 2011 it had 879 inhabitants. It is bordered by the Nitra River to the west and the Tribeč range of the Fatra-Tatra mountain complex to the east. Part of the municipality is within the Ponitrie Protected Landscape Area. Until around 1910, there used to be a longstanding division between the southern side of the village, known as Greater Appony (Nagyappony in Hungarian, Veľké Oponice in Slovak) and traditionally held by the Apponyis, and the northern side or Lesser Appony (Kisappony, Malé Oponice), where other families have long been dominant. The Church of St Peter and St Paul marked the boundary between the two sections.
