This wonderful two-storey, Eclectic castle (combining Neo-Baroque and Neo-Renaissance elements) got its today’s form at the end of 1980s. The constructions were commissioned by baron Béla Szentkereszty. The castle is surrounded by a beautiful English park of over nine hectares. The main attraction of the park is the lake, which also houses a small bridge-accessible island.
The Bánffy family owns an estate of approximately 50 hectares in Ciuguzel. The estate includes a Baroque-style manor house, a recently renovated old house, the garden and forests. The manor house is in good condition, however it necessitates serious renovation work. Its roof and walls are intact as the building was used a school for several years. The estate was returned to the Bánffy family, and after its renovation the family plans to use it for family events.
