    In Gurghiu, you have many must-see attractions to discover. In addition to the charming village, there is a botanical garden to the south of the town which ensures the protection of daffodils and certain species of tulips. There is also the baroque Rákóczi-Bornemisza Castle to visit. Finally overlooking the village, at the top of a wooded hill are the remains of the Gurghiu fortress. It was destroyed during the siege of 1708, led by the French military commander Jean-Louis de Bussy-Rabutin allied with the Habsburgs. Only a Roman Catholic chapel remains, rebuilt in 1887.
