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.
The Urmánczy Castle was built between 1903 and 1906 on a plateau of the Mureș River. It was built on the request of Jeromos Urmánczy, an Armenian landowner, and the building's architect was Virgilio Giacomuzzi, a Tyrolean architect. The style of the building combining the elements of the Art Nouveau with the features of the folk architecture related to the name of Kós Károly, is unique in the Transylvanian castle architecture. Currently, the castle does not have a function, but it can be visited upon request.
