Mogoşoaia

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Mogoşoaia is a commune in the west of Ilfov county, Romania.

The name derives from the name of a boyar, Mogoş -- the name is of Hungarian origin, "Magas".

In late 17th century, Constantin Brâncoveanu bought land here, and, between 1698-1702, he built the Mogoşoaia Palace.
