House of Teleki Domokos - Târgu Mureș

The palace under the fortress, which houses today the Reformed Church, was built in 1797-1803 in a classical baroque style. The interior patio is lined with carved stone columns. Its builder was Domokos Teleki, prefect of Turda County, and his wife, Zsuzsanna Kendeffy.

The house, like all the noble aristocratic houses, was the scene of musical gatherings and performances frequented also by mathematician Farkas Bolyai and János Bolyai. In 1849, this building served as the headquarters of General Bem.
According to historical sources, the Polish general together with the poet Petőfi Sándor marched from here to the battlefield of Albeşti on 30 July 1849.
