Although this is not in a poor condition like the others.
Great! 👍🏼
First one is Captain Haddock’s Mansion.
I quite like Gilau Castle. How much is it so I can buy it after I win the lottery next year?
Well done.
While I appreciate the restoration, in some cases it’s unfortunate that some of the color got lost for a dull greyish palette ..
With EU funds.
I think public money should be spent on infrastructure, energy grids, energy production, debt-reduction, nature protection and climate-mitigation.
The EU is essential for so many things in our European society but cultural heritage and investments aren’t the things we should be investing our money in, in my view.
They are gearing up for a triumphant return of the fiefs.
Whos paying for all that?
EU money?
Let’s hope they keep doing it. It would really be nice if they did the same with most buildings from Bucharest.
I’m very happy about this and hope it will continue.
Wonderful buildings, though I don’t think the new color schemes entirely flatter them. White/pale colors mean never ending painting so they’ll need to keep up with the maintenance. I’m doubtful about the use of grey on the domes – very fashionable now as a paint color, but wouldn’t it more likely to have been silver colored or lead cladding in the past? I’m very pleased to see the love and care for these buildings now so well done Romania!
And how’s your healthcare doing?
why make them a greige color though
Браво, Румъния!
i wonder where the funds came from…
have they considered renovating their living conditions for the average person, first?
I was confused which one is before and after
For Dracula
And they are removing the perspecrive distortion while doing it! Kudos, Romania!
Do you know are there any plans to do complete restoration in Timisoara or it’s just going to be the center of the city?
Well done really!!!
Válaszút is the Hungarian name for the Transylvanian home of the Bánffy castle. The Transylvanian noble family Bánffy was an important one and included the politician and author Miklós Bánffy, who wrote an epic Transylvanian Trilogy, The Writing on the Wall.
i’m romanian and i haven’t heard of half of those before 🙂
Romania is getting better whatever people are saying, one of the best examples of how EU can positively impact a country.
All these are great, but I think the latest exceptional restauration is of the old Constanta Casino.
Just seach for before and after pictures.
Very nice renovations! What are the castles used for? Hope they’re being open for the public to enjoy!
Now show me the hospitals.
Good for Romania. 👍🥰
I want to go to Romania someday and explore around! It’s a beautiful country with beautiful people! A bunch of my friends and acquaintances have been either because of family ties or because of some trip! Some even speak a little bit of Romanian! I see their pictures and the mountains are gorgeous! I also want to get some Lei before you switch to the Euro to add to my collection!
Hello from your neighbour, Hungary!
Romania slowly becoming a new Spain
What?! There’s a reason why these buildings got delapidated. They come from an era where there was – for a certain (short) period a lot of personnel all year round to heat this building, continuously repair this building etc.
What or who all of a sudden can use these very unpractible buildings?
This is the best money is spent ?
Europe has more of these buildings than there are towns and villages. 85% are so unpractical, impossible to heat, badly built, need personnel all year round to heat every place and continuously repair at remote places where nobody can make a living.
There’s brilliant TV documentaries on all this eg in France. Eg France and wikipedia have lists of these buildings. Yiu can hear from the nobility families themselves, architects, entrepreneurs-restorers, villages – villagers setting up cooperatives where everybody can support and buy some shares and become a co owner to help pay for the continuous repairs.
That’s from a time nobody was sitting 8h in front of TV or social media. That was hard working and being owned by a land lord / feodal system.
Good work on restauration, but the colors were better before imo. Now it looks bland.
Wow, I didn’t know about the Bethlen castle, looks cool
Intre timp, futaiul de castel Lonyai din Mediesu Aurit (fief PSD) : se macina tot mai tare de trecerea timpului din cauza unui debil de partid incapabil sa atraga finantare europeana pentru renovare.
Si pentru cine crede ca poate e prea distrus: check castelul Karolyi din Carei… renovat din fonduri europene, unde s-a si filmat un film siropos de Craciun oentru Netflix.
UDMR bad ca is unghiuri, desi atrag fonduri europene de le rup.
Lasa ca is mai buni ai nostri … PSD… cu programul Anghel Saligny/PNDL. /s
se vede bunastarea /S

Go Romania! ❤️🇷🇴😁
Why remove all the colour though. Pic 2 is a downgrade colourwise and with the removal of plants
I kinda like how they didn’t completely polished up the facade in Banffy
I also liked the red roofs in the second one more too
They’re nice renovations, except #2. They turned it less lively, and it was in very good condition to begin with, at least externally
The more I hear about Romania, the more I want to visit!
Beautiful landscape and architecture as well.
Also [Sturdza castle](https://medium.com/@stefangeorgeta1978/sturdza-castle-from-miclăușeni-one-of-the-most-beautiful-buildings-in-iași-romania-fef9eec30bd9), an absolute jewel, will undergo some renovations starting this year.
