1676 · around 1679 · 1703 – 1711 The mining office takes over its own guardBanský úrad preberá vlastnú stráž

In 1676 Revište passed to the mining chamber at Banská Štiavnica — the royal office that ran the mines — and the chamber kept the castle to the very end. There is a neat circle in that: the castle had been built to protect the silver road, and now the silver administration owned the castle outright. It did not buy peace. Around 1679 the rising of Imrich Thököly damaged the castle badly and it was repaired straight afterwards; then came the long rebellion of Francis II Rákóczi between 1703 and 1711, and castles all along the Hron changed hands again and again. Every one of those turns cost the chamber money to put right, and at some point the sums stopped being worth paying.V roku 1676 prešlo Revište na banskú komoru v Banskej Štiavnici — kráľovský úrad, ktorý spravoval bane — a komora si hrad ponechala až do úplného konca. Je v tom pekný kruh: hrad postavili, aby chránil striebornú cestu, a teraz ho vlastnila samotná správa striebra. Pokoj si tým nekúpila. Okolo roku 1679 hrad ťažko poškodilo povstanie Imricha Thökölyho a hneď nato ho opravili; potom prišlo dlhé povstanie Františka II. Rákócziho v rokoch 1703 – 1711 a hrady po celom Pohroní menili majiteľov znova a znova. Každá taká zmena stála komoru peniaze na opravu — a raz sa tie sumy prestali oplácať.
