Cula Greceanu, Fortified mansion in Măldărești, Romania.

The three-level stone structure contains multiple chambers, a cellar with shooting holes, and two arcaded loggias featuring Brâncoveanu architectural elements.

Built in the 16th century by Nan Paharnicul as a defensive tower, the mansion was reconstructed between 1780 and 1790 by Gheorghe Maldarescu and his wife Eva.

The interior rooms display traditional Turkish-style seating arrangements with divans separated by small tables, reflecting the Ottoman influence on Romanian nobility.

The mansion opens daily from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM during summer months and 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM in winter as part of the Măldărești Museum Complex.

In 1934, Olga Greceanu painted frescoes depicting family history in one of the adjacent rooms, adding artistic value to the historical structure.
