The Cornățelu village has a long history, the first documentary attestation being, as remarked by I. C. Visarion, in 1497, so that in 1531 we can find it as an estate of Vintilă Cornățeanu and of his wife, Voica. In 1627 the property belonged to Socol Cornățeanu, Vintilă's great-grandson, who was married to Mihai Viteazul's illegitimate daughter, Marula. Next to the manor the Saint Nicholas church can be found, founded by Vintilă Cornățeanu and Voica, and in its courtyard a 3.10 m high and beautifully ornamented monumental stone cross, with an inscription dating back to 1645. The cross was created by Socol Cornățeanu in memory of his parents and his wife, Marula. Both the church of St. Nicholas and the stone cross are classified as class A historical monuments of national and universal importance. In Cornățelu, located 35 km away from Târgoviște, which was the ancient voivodeship capital of Wallachia, a tradition of almost four and a half centuries takes place- a large annual fair called Târgul Cornățel, mentioned in the writings of Pantazi Ghica and I. C. Visarion. The name Cornățel derives from the Cornățeni boyars, who occupied the high ranks- great dignitaries at the royal court in Târgoviște during the reigns of Matei Basarab, Vlad Țepeș and Mihai Viteazul. Four centuries after the attestation of Vintilă Cornățeanu as owner of the Cornățel estate, we find another owner of the estate, Dumitrescu, who built in 1933 the manor in our presentation. The manor’s domain, with a 3.67 ha area, borders to the east, on a length of over 300 m, with a lake that once cleaned, can offer a great advantage to the property. The mansion needs rehabilitation, as well as the numerous annexes, but bringing it back to its former glory can be a real landmark of the area. Its architectural beauty, generous and bright rooms and large terraces opening to the surrounding park can be enhanced for multiple purposes, as residential or commercial, and there is the possibility of expanding through new constructions on the land of the manor. The property deserves to be restored and be brought back to the importance it had 500 years ago, from the times of the boyar Vintilă and the mistress Voica Cornățeanu.
