History
The palace was built between 1620 and 1629 under Prince Bethlen Gábor of Transylvania, based on the plans of Giacomo Resti. It was both a fortress and a princely palace. It was the secondary residence of the Prince after the one in Gyulafehervár (Block A). Block B was built in three phases, between 1620 and 1629, 1638 and 1648 and 1881 and 1882. The southeastern part of the princely palace (Block C) was built between 1638 and 1648 during the reign of Prince Rákóczi György I of Transylvania, based on the designs of Sárdi György from Kolozsvár. It was also part of the prince's residence.
The construction of Block D was started in 1775 for the Austrian garrison headquarters based on the designs of Lodovico Marini. Unlike the other buildings, it is one storey high. The northern wing of the Prince's Palace (Block E) was built between 1620 and 1629, enlarged between 1638 and 1648, and was given its present appearance between 1775 and 1777, during the Austrian occupation.
