Hence the idea of opening the castle to the visiting public (he had his father\u2019s model, who had opened the gates of Sigmaringen Castle wide since 1867). This would happen frequently after 1914. The monarch\u2019s desire for Peles to be visited would continue even after his death, although the castle was no longer inhabited regularly, Ferdinand and Maria preferring Pelisor, and Carol II and Mihai Foisor. But Peles hosted distinguished guests, and Carol II used it for official events, usually using his uncle&#039;s study. The money collected from various visits, from 1920 onwards, was donated to Queen Maria&#039;s charity works. Later, after the nationalization in 1948, the castle would even become a museum (officially in 1953). Open to the Romanian public, it was even more open to foreign visitors, especially those of aristocratic rank, not to mention official guests of Romania. Among the most distinguished guests, during the time of Carol I, was Emperor Franz-Joseph, in 1896, on which occasion Romania&#039;s treaty with the Triple Alliance was renewed, right at the castle. This fact is confirmed by a commemorative relief by Jean-Jules Lecomte du Nouy and located in the marble hall. The guests of Carol I are Prince Alexander of Battenberg of Bulgaria, much appreciated by the Romanian royal family, Tsar Ferdinand, Alexander&#039;s successor, not at all esteemed at court, King Gustav of Sweden, Queen Emma of the Netherlands and Maria Theresa of Bavaria. Archdukes Rudolf and Stephanie of Habsburg come to Peles and are entertained, in 1884, as does Franz Ferdinand of Habsburg, in 1909, the year in which Crown Prince Wilhelm of Germany also comes to Peles. Iussuf Izzedin, the heir to the Ottoman Empire, comes from Istanbul. The Romanian royal family is visited at Peles by Grand Duke Boris of Russia, Duke Alfred of Edinburgh, Charlotte and Bernhard III of Sachsen-Meiningen and numerous other relatives of the Romanian royal family. An occasion of satisfaction for the sovereigns, proud of the riches of the castle and the beauty of the surroundings. Also at Peles, many of the queen&#039;s guests at her cultural events are hosted, especially at concerts (almost daily, usually held by the queen on the piano, G. Enescu on the violin and Dinicu on the cello). The poet Vasile Alecsandri was the queen&#039;s favorite and one of her most valuable advisors. Princess Maria met at the queen&#039;s concerts personalities such as Sarah Bernhardt, Catulle Mendes, Sarasate, Hubermann, the French writer Pierre Loti, etc. For all of them, wrote Maria, Carmen Sylva &quot;knew how to cherish them, to awaken their sympathy and enthusiasm. She ignited their imagination with words of praise, listened to them with bated breath and poured out on their heads wise appreciations and everyone left her side subjugated by her charm&quot;. Peles was far from Europe if you looked at its map, but through its riches and through the generosity and wisdom of sovereigns endowed with dynastic grace, it became part of the continent and the soul of an increasingly European country. The period of N. Ceausescu For Gerald Ford, the president of the United States who was visiting the Mioritic lands, the hosts also organized a visit to Peles. Legend has it that the guest declared himself delighted with the castle and the view and that, influenced by the good impressions of the American, Ceausescu decided to remove the former royal residence from the public circuit and transform it into a protocol residence for distinguished guests. As a result of the decision, Peles underwent major repairs. As in other protocol residences, Ceausescu rarely set foot in Peles. Twice, the &quot;Bulgarian counterpart&quot; Todor Zhivkov was received and entertained here, and the third time the East German leader Erich Honecker was the host. Since 1982, the former summer residence of the kings has not been used at all.[\/stag_toggle]<\/p>\n<p>[stag_toggle style=\u201dnormal\u201d title=\u201dHOW HIGH IS PELES CASTLE?\u201d state=\u201dclosed\u201d]The Clock Tower of Peles Castle measures 66 meters.[\/stag_toggle]<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"class_list":["post-5237","pagina-transaprenta","type-pagina-transaprenta","status-publish","format-standard","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Intreb\u0103ri Frecvente &#183;
