Conacul Cantacuzino-Pașcanu din Popești

Conacul Cantacuzino-Pașcanu din Popești, Historic manor in Popești, Romania.

The Cantacuzino-Pașcanu Manor presents a rectangular structure with vaulted cellars, perimeter walls, and architectural elements typical of 19th-century Romanian noble residences.

The manor was built in 1840 by Dumitrache Cantacuzino-Pașcanu, replacing an older residence that belonged to the Mavrocordat family during previous centuries.

The residence served as a gathering place for Moldavian nobility, including visits from Prince Grigore Ghica and important social gatherings of the period.

After 1989, the manor experienced severe deterioration, with local residents removing stones from its walls for other construction purposes.

The site maintains its original underground cellar system and several architectural fragments that demonstrate the building techniques of Romanian noble residences.
