Geocache Description:


[Ro] Cel mai mare castel baroc din Transilvania se află la Jibou. Grădina Botanică, fondată în anul 1968 de profesorul Vasile Fati, se află în parcul castelului.
Castelul Wesselényi a fost ridicat în secolul al XVIII-lea (fiind completat în secolul al XIX-lea) de Baronul Wesselényi Miklós senior ca reședință nobiliară.
După naționalizare exteriorul palatului nu a suferit intervenţii majore. Interiorul în schimb a fost afectat, palatul fiind azi în mare parte gol. Mobila, sobele, tablourile şi obiectele decorative ce împodobeau până la jumătatea secolului XX încăperile palatului s-au pierdut.
Castelul a fost retrocedat în 2011 moștenitorilor familiei Wesselényi și nu poate fi vizitat.
