Făgăraș, Medieval municipality in Brașov County, Romania.
The municipality of Făgăraș extends along the Olt River at the base of the Carpathian Mountains, with stone buildings lining its central streets.
The Făgăraș Fortress, constructed in the 14th century, served as a residence for Transylvanian princes and later transformed into a prison during the Communist period.
The local heritage museum displays collections of traditional costumes, agricultural tools, and religious artifacts representing the Romanian, Saxon, and Hungarian communities.
The DN1 national road connects Făgăraș to major cities Brașov and Sibiu, while the train station provides regular services to destinations across Romania.
The Făgăraș Mountains contain Moldoveanu Peak, which at 2,544 meters stands as the highest point in the Romanian Carpathians.
