Károlyi Castle (also called Uray Castle) is a 19th-century castle located in Beregsurány, Vásárosnamény District, Szabolcs-Szatmár-Bereg County, Hungary. The castle was built in classicist style by Baron Gyula Uray before being acquired by the Károlyi family and updated by architect Miklós Ybl.

History

[edit]

It was built by Baron Gyula Uray at the beginning of the 19th century, in the classicist style. On the street and courtyard façades of the ground-floor building, the four-columned colonnade is closed by a triangular pediment. It is simple in design, with romantic details, both on the outside and inside. It is owned by the local government, and currently houses the mayor's office.[1]

The castle park

[edit]

In the castle park, called the Baron's Garden, there is a World War II memorial, a millennium memorial column, and rare species of trees (holm oak, noble linden, plane tree).[2][3]
