Located at Červený Kameň Castle, Červený Kameň Museum SNM is a specialised museum which houses a rich and very valuable collection of historical furniture and household accessories, offering an overview of typical aristocratic interiors between the 16th and 19th centuries, together with a variety of weapons, including oriental weapons. A newly-installed museum exhibition on the lifestyle of the nobility has also been added. The castle chapel, historical library, castle pharmacy, and the knights' hall form a part of the exhibition.
