Bran Castle

Bran Castle  ( Romanian :  Castelul Bran ;  German :  Schloss Bran ;  Hungarian :  Törcsvári kastély ) is a castle in  Bran , 25 kilometres (16 mi) southwest of  Brașov . It is a national monument and landmark in  Romania . The  fortress  is on the  Transylvanian  side of the historical border with  Wallachia , on road  DN73 .

Commonly known outside Romania as  Dracula's Castle , it is often referred to as the home of the title character in  Bram Stoker 's  Dracula . [ citation needed ]  There is no evidence that Stoker knew anything about this  castle , which has only tangential associations with  Vlad the Impaler ,  voivode  of Wallachia, the putative inspiration for Dracula. [ citation needed ]  Stoker's description of Dracula's crumbling fictional castle also bears no resemblance to Bran Castle.

The castle is now a museum dedicated to displaying art and furniture collected by  Queen Marie . [1]  Tourists can see the interior on their own or by a guided tour. At the bottom of the hill is a small  open-air museum  exhibiting traditional Romanian  peasant  structures (cottages, barns, water-driven machinery, etc.) from the Bran region. [
