Maria Theresa Mansion is a destination located in the heart of Romania just 15 km from Sibiu, one of the most beautiful cities in Eastern Europe. Sibiu has an international airport so the road here is relatively easy. The buildings of the complex are new and are located over a very old building dating from the times when Maria Theresa was Empress here, hence the name given by the owners.
