A brief history of the castle: The manor was built by Judge György Chernel around 1780 in a classicizing-late Baroque style, and after his death, his son Antal Chernel inherited it. Until the nationalization in 1945, it was owned by the family and used as a residence. The manor served as a residence until 1990, then became private property, and is currently vacant.
The renovation of the building, which began in 2017, is therefore still ongoing, step by step. The images shown depict the current, actual state of the castle.
