Bran Castle is one of the most famous monuments and tourist attractions in Romania, both nationally and internationally. Due to its overwhelming economic, military and later cultural importance, but also due to its strategic location on the southern border of Transylvania, it has been used over time as a customs house, a fortress and a royal residence.
A massive stone construction, with white walls and a scarlet roof, towers and thick walls visible from afar, it was built on a hill between Mฤgura and Dealul Cetฤศii, just 30 km from Brasov.
Known everywhere as Dracula’s Castle, Bran Castle, along with the legend of Vlad the Impaler, served as inspiration for writer Bram Stoker to shape the story of the bloodthirsty vampire in the famous novel “Dracula”.
Later, Bran Castle became the soul place of Queen Mary of Romania, who transformed it into a private residence, where she often sought peace and quiet, close to the peasants of the Bran area, proudly wearing folk costumes.
We thus invite you on an imaginary journey through the Bran Pass, on the border of Transylvania, to discover a building that impresses with its imposing structure and appearance, but which is also intimate and welcoming, decorated minimally but with great taste. Piece by piece you will be able to recreate an emblematic image of the castle on the cliff, through a 1000-piece puzzle.
