Săvârșin Castle

Săvârșin Castle (Romanian: Castelul Săvârșin, pronunciation: [səvɨrˈʃin]) is a large country house situated in Săvârșin Park, a 6.5-hectare (16-acre) private estate that was owned by King Michael I of the Romanians (1921–2017) in Săvârșin, Arad County, Romania.

It is the Romanian Royal Family’s official country residence where the statutes defining the role and powers of the royal family are signed. King Michael I and Queen Anne spent their annual Christmas holidays here following the castle's restitution to royal ownership, a tradition continued by Margareta, Custodian of the Romanian Crown. Since 2021 the castle grounds and King Michael's collection of WW2 Jeeps have been open to the public during the summer.
