History
The manor was built in the 19th century, with the main building and the farm complex along the yard largely dating from the second half of the century. Mihály Dániel is named as the 19th-century owner, possibly from an Armenian-origin family from the Gherla area, and his son was the second owner. The state expropriated the estate in 1949 and the complex became part of a state farm. After 1989 the Dániel descendants regained it and later sold it to a pair of siblings, who run it as a guesthouse. The farm buildings were substantially altered, while the main house was not.
