Bran Castle is a medieval fortress in Transylvania, Romania, perched on a cliff overlooking a valley, with a history dating back to the 14th century. Its striking architecture features imposing towers and turrets, narrow winding staircases, and secret passages, reflecting its original defensive purpose. While not the home of Vlad the Impaler, it was a strategic border fortress that later became a royal residence for Queen Marie of Romania and is now a museum. The castle is famous as Dracula's Castle
