Semsey Castle, Classicist château in Balmazújváros, Hungary
The castle exhibits a symmetrical design with four Ionic pillars supporting the central tympanum of the bright yellow neoclassical facade.
Built between 1796 and 1805 under the commission of Andor Semsey, the castle replaced an earlier manor house belonging to the Andrássy family.
The castle houses exhibitions about Hungarian cowboys from the Hortobagy region, displaying artifacts and historical photographs of local traditions.
The castle, located 109 miles from Budapest, features exhibition rooms with ottomans where visitors can sit while examining the displays.
An extensive vaulted cellar system extends beneath the entire castle structure, forming an integral part of the building's architecture.
