Bánffy Castle, One of the most beautiful eclectic castle of Transylvania. Romania

Banffy Palace The castle is the result of the reconstruction of the family manor, which was heavily damaged during the 1848-1849 revolution. The reconstruction works, which began before 1859, were commissioned by the estate’s new owner, Baron Bánffy Albert. He later entrusted architect Kerekes Márton with additional reparations in 1870. Baron Bánffy Ádám (1847-1887), the son of Baron Bánffy Albert and Eszterházy Ágnes, married Wesselényi Mária in that same year, and subsequently moved into the castle from Válaszút/Răscruci. The building’s upper floor and its defining eclectic facade are the most significant modifications from this time, and are attributed to Baron Bánffy Ádám. An old painting, displayed by Kelemen Lajos, shows us what the facade facing the garden looked like before the modifications: it had a ground floor, a mansard roof and a large room in the centre of the upper floor.   / adrian.damian.102     / adrian_travelling     / adriandamian
