Summary
A ruined fortified manor in Buia (Șeica Mare commune, Sibiu County) with 15th-17th century origins and a Gothic chapel. Most walls still stand but vaulting has collapsed and the grounds are overgrown; the courtyard is used for farming.
History
The Szilvási and Toldi owners built the two eastern bastions in the 17th-18th centuries. A beam inscription records building works in 1669. The baroque and classicist walls were largely rebuilt in the 18th-19th centuries. The Gothic chapel at the end of the north wing has lost its vault, with only fresco fragments near the altar.
