Apaffi Castle in Coștiui
Rónaszék, Romania, Romania
Apafi Castle in Coștiui (Rónaszék), part of Rona de Sus commune in Maramureș County, Romania, originated as a 17th-century hunting lodge built in 1689 by Prince Mihai Apafi I of Transylvania, featuring a fortified structure that later served administrative roles for local salt mines.
Modified over centuries with only the basement and one room surviving from the original, it functioned as a prison and residence for mine overseers before falling into disrepair amid regional noble transitions.
Today, this modest Baroque manor stands as a protected historic monument amid rural Maramureș, preserving traces of Transylvanian princely legacy despite limited public access.
