Viscri 63B

The Peter Markel guesthouse in Viscri

This sunshine-bathed home once belonged to the wealthiest family in the village, with an attached rustic barn that was the largest in all of Viscri. In 2002, the house was in a severe state of degradation. The Mihai Eminescu Trust saved the house and the barn, turning it into an authentic Saxon guesthouse. This is the perfect spot for a quiet weekend or a countryside vacation.

You will have the entire house to yourself.

House address: 63, Viscri

House facilities: 1 bedroom with two twin beds and also one Saxon bed with a drawer (2 beds connected side by side), one bathroom, parking space, shared yard.

Who we are & what we believe in

This is a guest house owned and managed by the Mihai Eminescu Trust (MET). The MET is a non-profit organization that has 20 years of experience in heritage conservation and the regeneration of villages in Transylvania and Maramureș. 

Experience Transylvania is the Foundation’s initiative for the development of cultural tourism and it consists of a network of over 20 traditional guesthouses scattered around beautiful villages such as: Mălâncrav, Florești, Richiș, Biertan, Alma Vii, Viscri, Criț or Breb.  

We are here to support the local economy by involving villagers in the restoration and management of the houses and thus showing that, if well preserved, heritage can become a source of growth for the community. Our goal is to empower people and to assist them in creating a sustainable and healthy future, while preserving their cultural heritage and an authentic way of life.

While enjoying delightful local dishes and the peaceful village life, guests staying in our houses unknowingly support our work and are part of this success story. Thank you.
