Peleș Castle Highlights

The Hall of Honour

Holul de Onoare (The Hall of Honour) was completed under the direction of Karel Liman, in 1911 and encompasses three levels. Exotic woods and European walnut are used primarily to decorate the walls with superbly crafted woodwork. Retractable stained glass panels, bas-reliefs, and statues made of alabaster finish the decoration.

The Grand Armory

1,600 pieces of armour and armament are kept in Sala Mare de Arme, also known as ‘The Arsenal’. This exhibit features one of Europe's best collections of hunting and combat weapons from the 14th-19th centuries. The king increased several pieces utilised in his triumph over the Ottoman Turks during the War of Independence.

The Florentine Room

The Sala Florentine (The Florentine Room), incorporates numerous revived aspects of the Italian Renaissance, primarily from Florence. Most spectacular among these are the solid bronze doors made in Rome, the Luigi Magni ateliers, and the grand marble fireplace made by Paunazio with Michelangelo patterns.

The Imperial Suite

The Austrian Emperor Franz Joseph I, who visited the castle as a friend of the Romanian Royal Family, is thought to have been honoured with Apartamentul Imperial (The Imperial Suite). The rarest of such quality is a five-hundred-year-old Cordoban tooled leather wall cover that is immaculately preserved.

Ceramics exhibition

Over 5,000 pieces of porcelain, floor tiles, and faience from the finest 19th-century European ceramicists and centres are on display at the ceramics exhibition. The Peles Museum acquired subsequent artefacts from both private owners and antique shops during 1970. It was founded between 1914 and 1927 by Queen Marie.

Clock collection

Over 50 clocks from the private royal collection, representing a variety of styles and typologies, are on show at the horology exhibition in Peles. It contains pocket watches, pendulum table clocks, grandfather clocks, fireplace clocks, alarm clocks, and more. The majority of them belonged to King Carol I.
