    Bran Castle

    Posted by Sissi 21 April 2008

    This is the medieval castle, often referred to as Dracula's Castle. But it is not only interesting for horror fans; built in 1377 it’s a true art treasure.
    Built to protect from invaders it became a royal residence in 1920.

    Take your time and enjoy the view of the castle; it sits high on top of a tall rock, overlooking the picturesque village. Inside you can have a look at a rich collection of Romanian and foreign furniture and art items from the 14th-19th centuries.

    Location: the village of Bran, 16 miles southwest of Brasov.
    Open: Tuesday through Sunday, from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM.
