In the Ilfov district, a few kilometers northwest of Bucharest ( the capital of Romania ), Mogosoaia Castle is located on the shores of Lake Mogosoaia, in Mogosoaia.

The castle contains a main courtyard and many buildings, such as the watchtower and the church „ Saint George ” near the courtyard.

Wallachian Prince Constantin Brancoveanu had the castle built between 1698 and 1702 on the estate of the widow Mogos ( from which the name Mogosoaia ) later derives in the Brancoveanu architecture style named after him.
In 1714, when Constantin Brancoveanu and his entire family were executed in Constantinople, the Ottomans confiscated the entire family fortune and turned the palace into an inn ( a kind of inn ).

In the following decades, the castle was conquered, destroyed and rebuilt repeatedly, until it became the property of George III in 1912. Valentin Bibesco arrived, who was married to the French writer Marthe Bibesco from the Romanian nobility. He gave the estate to his wife, and Marthe Bibesco restored the castle at sea.
