Corvin Castle, Romania
A huge and spectacular Rennaissance-Gothic style construction, Corvin Castle was built over a former fortification on a rock rising above the Zlaști River. An imposing edifice with multiple bastions and towers, it features numerous carved stone balconies and windows. Having served as a fortress until the mid-14th century, it later became the residence of Transylvania’s governor John Hunyadi and was subsequently transformed into a magnificent castle with high buttresses, inner courtyards and dozens of rooms hung with medieval art.
