ABOUT THE TREASURE

What: House, Ensemble
Where: Romania, Sambata de Sus
When: National Revival / Brankovani

The Brancoveanu Ensemble, one of the most representative buildings in Transylvania, belonged to the Wallachian princes. Its architectural features are a combination of the Wallachian and Transylvanian building traditions. The ground floors have been preserved in their original form, with minimal changes from the 19th and 20th centuries on the upper floors. The solid brickwork and stonework of the structure has protected it against serious damage. Part of the historic park around the ensemble is also preserved. The main gate of the precinct is decorated with beautiful Corinthian capitals.
