Cantacuzino Castle, a historic building that blends Neo-Romanian style with Brancovinescu elements, was built between 1901 and 1911 to designs by the renowned architect Grigore Cerches for the family of Prince Grigore Cantacuzino. The castle boasts exquisite interior decorations, including Italian mosaic floors, Venetian stained-glass windows, Albești stone fireplaces, Italian ceramics, Carrara marble staircases, carved oak doors, and Parisian bronze hardware. The castle's ballroom is particularly striking, with full-length portraits of 12 members of the Cantacuzino family painted on Córdoba leather on the walls, showcasing the family's heritage. Today, the castle houses an art gallery showcasing works by artists including Dalí, Picasso, and Van Gogh, attracting numerous visitors.
