Simén Manor - Călimănești
Full description
Located 26 km from Târgu Mureş and 33 km from Sighișoara.
The manor of the Simén family was built on the place opposite the reformed church of the village. Built of brick and river stone, the manor was originally erected in a rectangular plan, and in the 20th century a porch and a covered terrace were added. Among the notable guests of the manor are Hungarian national poet Petőfi Sándor and Hungarian writer Jókai Mór. The manor was built on a hill, overlooking the Târnava Mică river, and this location allowed the construction of vaulted cellars.
After nationalization, it served as a public building, and then it became the village’s cultural home until 2006, when it was bought by the Petry family from Târgu Mureș. The current magnificent look is due to the Petry family, who transformed the manor into an event center and winery, opening its doors after long works that lasted between 2007-2016.
The castle can be visited by prior appointment. Wine tastings or other events can also be arranged upon request.
