Famous for the Corvinestilor Castle, built in the XIII  century, the castle is considered the most important laical building in gothic style (also having baroque and renaissance elements) in Transylvania.
The castle was built by the Anjou family in 1320 on some old roman fortifications. In 1409 Sigismund of Luxemburg donated the castle to the Corvin family for their military merits. Count Gabriel Bethlen (1580-1629) made some modifications later to the castle’s architecture.
