Ştirbey Palace is one of the best examples of romantic architecture in Romania at the time of its accomplishment; Ştirbey residence is located in the centre of the park.

The only information regarding the construction of the palace is found on the west side: the year 1864 and, above, the A-B-S letters, representing the name of Alexandru B. Ştirbey, are cut in the center of a circle accentuated by four arches with a Gothic profile.

The Gothic style, which is discreetly represented on the outside and more visibly so inside, is combined with decorations that talk about the interest in romantic searches of the European and Romanian architecture of the 19th century, all of these underlying the overall simplicity which confers this building its particular character.

Downstairs, in the central saloon, there are still very well preserved original windows and doors with their wooden frames, with oak gothic-like decorations, wooden beams, a fireplace of white Carrara marble, and the walls with classic wooden decorations.

The palace had gone through several stages of construction, and during the postwar era, under the direction of the architects Robert Voll and Agripa Popescu, it was subject to repairs and restorations of various elements of facades and interiors.
