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.
On the ground floor of the recently renovated castle, there are the offices of the National Touristic Information and Promotion Center, and on the first floor, there are exhibition rooms. At the moment, there are photo and mock-up exhibitions of Transylvanian castles, and a separate exhibition room commemorating the flooded village during Communism, Bezidu Nou. In the future, the building will host a museum dedicated to the memory of Clauda Rhédey, and in the basement, a wine cellar representing the Region of the Carpathians will function.
The Castle of Gilău, along with the Castle of Gherla, is one of the earliest castles with rectangular plan in Transylvania. The castle is under renovation, but the castle's garden is open to visitors at some events (e.g. the "Várkert" (Castle's Garden) Festival, The Hungarian Day of the Transilvania Film Festival etc.).
The second edition of Awake Festival will take place at the Teleki Estate between 17-19 august 2018. The line-up includes famous international bands like Morcheeba, Wilkinson or The Subways, but also Romanian and Hungarian ones.
