Summary/Abstract: The castle and the estate of Târgoviște (Wasarhely), in Timiș county, was the subject of numerous pledge contracts at the turn of the 15th and 16th centuries. The beneficiary of these was the ban of Severin, Francisc Haraszti who, according to a lost testimony, bought a part of this estate. One of the domain owners, Gașpar of Pomaz was a loyal customer of the ban, from which he borrowed various sums of money. The nature of the relations between the two nobles was quite complex, as a result of which Francisc Haraszti inherited a part of the estate. The noble domain had been quite large, comprising numerous villages, and its center was the castle of Patkolcz or Târgoviște. Its ruins are located today, in the southern border of Târgoviște village, from Timiș county.
