Bran Castle, Castle in Transylvania, Romania
Bran Castle, commonly known as 'Dracula's Castle', is a national monument and landmark in Romania.
The castle was first documented in an act issued by Louis I of Hungary on 19 November 1377.
It is often associated with the Dracula legend, although it has no ties to Vlad the Impaler, the real-life inspiration for Dracula.
Today, the castle functions as a museum displaying art and furniture collected by Queen Marie.
Despite its fame, Bran Castle has never been owned by any member of the Dracula family.
