Scary castles in Romania (40 photos)

Romania is rich in a variety of locks and each has a trace of Dracula.
The history of the castle Corwin is also not without this character, they say that 7 years in this prison held dethroned «real Dracula» - valahskogo ruler Vlad Tepes.
Perhaps for this reason, the castle begins to torture. Nervous and children not to go under the cut.



 
Right behind the counter. Not yet entered the courtyard of the castle. Delicate signs "16+". And who climbed inside - are guilty, you have been warned. Almost no one is constrained, calling - "your mother!" In variations in different languages ​​could be heard even in the yard.









For those who are interested in "mechanism", attached detailed instructions.



The castle was built in the mid 15th century, John Hunyadi, the father of the Hungarian King Matthias Corvinus.





Those who were in Budapest, about him, probably, know, and there could see the symbol of the king - a crow with a ring - at the gates of Buda Castle and on the spire of the church of St. Matthias. The castle Corwin ravens can also be seen in the most unexpected places. These black birds lie even in the title: the nickname King "Corwin" means "raven».







Rooms of the castle - a huge, authentic medieval.





Chapel.



And in the yard was supposed to begin, "joust". We did not wait for him, they saw only a "dress rehearsal».









After Matthias Corvinus the castle had many owners, the most famous - the Habsburgs. After a fire in the mid-19th century the castle changed - all wooden structures (those that are not burned) were replaced with more durable. But here's the bridge was still wooden.



Corvin Castle is located in Hunedoara. People are a little bit. In the city center there is an interesting church, but of it as something the next time.



Visitors to the "Dracula's castle" much more.



And the castle itself somehow smaller - maybe the total area had not less, but because of the many "small rooms" it looks like some kind of tight.







Although Bran Castle was built a little earlier royal - in the late 14th century. It was built as a defensive fortress of the then current residents of Brasov (Wikipedia read that 10 years - from 1950 to 1960 - the city was called Orashul-Stalin (after Stalin).



Then at the fortress were the hosts, including Vlad Tepes - "Dracula" ... it does not. According to legend, in the local woods he loved to hunt and sometimes stayed in the Bran Castle on the night. What a story inflated, it is not clear.



In the early 20th century, the castle passed to the Queen Mary, who was the granddaughter of the Russian Emperor Alexander II became Queen of Romania, having married Crown Prince Ferdinand.





Whether to keep the castle in the form when it belonged to Queen Mary - I say difficult. Many rooms still hang pictures and portraits of the royal family.









Judging by what is now officially in the castle is the Museum of History is likely part of the interior - it's just a collection of furniture and household items.

















Dracula is only reminds attic room in close you can read stories about vampires.
