The territory of Transylvania has seen the construction of a “fairy tale house”, which has gained immense popularity because it – as described – holds similarity to the home of hobbits from the eponymous film.

The house was built from organic materials and without any use of paint or varnish.

By the end of the year, the couple who own the house is going to open a restaurant within the complex that is going to serve only locally sourced organic food, and they hope that one day they will turn their home into a hotel.

The hobbit house is situated 40km from the city of Sibiu, and the locals have dubbed it the Clay Fairy Tale Castle.
