About Peles Castle

Peles Castle has been the main attraction of the Sinaia resort since the turn of the 19th century. The edifice was built in 1873 at the order of Carol de Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen, King of Romania from 1866, and is an architectural mixture of the German School and neo-renaissance style.

The castle has 160 rooms, all of them opulently decorated in leather and wood from the most valuable tree species. The Armour Hall, Reception Hall, Concert Hall, and, of course, the Royal Chamber is famous. Peles also served as the retreat residence of most of Romania's monarchs – Carol I, who died here in 1914, King Ferdinand, and Queen Maria.
