Romanian castles loking for their new owners

Take a look of the list and prices of 3 of Transylvania's top locations

Wealthy local families built many castles and palaces across Romania, each one filled with the stories of their founders and legends about the events they hosted. After being nationalized during the Communist regime, they were used for a variety of purposes, ranging from educational establishments to warehouses. Nowadays, some of them are looking for new owners and a fresh start.

This castle used to be a summer residence for nobleman Géza Teleki and his son, Pál Teleki who was a prime minister of Hungary. The castle was built around the end of the XVIII century and modernized in the XIX century. It used to host many balls, attended by notable Hungarian figures.

After being nationalized, the castle served as the headquarters of an agricultural cooperative, a cereal warehouse, and a cinema hall. In 1962 it received historical monument status.
