  • Journey through time

    Your adventure begins as you arrive in the charming village of Bran, nestled amidst the rolling hills of Transylvania. Ascend the hill and be awestruck by the imposing presence of Bran Castle, also known as Dracula's Castle. Step inside the medieval fortress and explore its labyrinthine corridors, narrow staircases, and hidden passageways. Discover secret chambers that whisper tales of a bygone era, and marvel at the architectural details that speak volumes about the castle's rich history.

    Uncover the castle's history

    Uncover the truth behind the legend – while Vlad Tepes, the inspiration for Dracula, may not have resided here, the castle's intriguing past is sure to captivate you. Learn about Queen Marie, the last royal resident, who transformed the space into a summer residence, and admire the art and furniture collections reflecting her exquisite taste. Emerge from the castle and wander through the picturesque Royal Gardens, a haven of tranquility boasting stunning views of the surrounding landscape. Imagine Queen Marie sipping tea in her charming Tea House, crafted for intimately greeting her guests.
