8 Beautiful Historic Castles in Transylvania

Transylvania is a land of vast beauty. Although it's known for tales of werewolves and Dracula, Transylvania is home to some of Europe’s oldest and prettiest castles. From Baroque design to Neo-Gothic structures, these castles will leave you inspired to take your home design style up a royal notch.

Cantacuzino Castle in Busteni, Romania was completed in 1911 at the request of Prince George Grigore Cantacuzino. The castle belonged to the Cantacuzino family until the forced nationalization of 1948. During the communist period, the original furniture was removed and a part of the interior walls were painted over. After 1989, the castle was returned to Cantacuzino descendants, who sold it to private investors in 2004. The castle underwent restoration work and today it is open to the public as a museum.
