Transylvania in Pictures
Transylvania in pictures: a fairy-tale castle and villages with fortified churches. Bran Castle rises on a rock above a mountain pass near Brașov. It is often called Dracula’s Castle, although the link to Vlad the Impaler is mostly legend. Saxon settlers built their churches like small fortresses to protect villagers from raids. In Biertan, the church stands on a hill inside three rings of walls, and in Prejmer, over 250 storage rooms line the thick walls. Both are UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
