The Stubenberg Castle is a historical monument in Săcueni, Bihor, Romania. Construction of the castle began in the late 18th century and was finalized by the beginning of the 19th century.[1]

The castle originally belonged to the Habsburg Royal House, who offered it to J. Dietrichstein, counselor to the Austro-Hungarian Empire. In 1830 it was sold to the Stubenberg family.[2]

Presently it belongs to the Romanian State. It used to function as the "Petõfi Sándor" Highschool until 2008.[3]
