Though Bran Castle in Transylvania doesn’t lean too heavily into the Dracula mythos, it does have a rather extensive torture exhibition that you can visit for an extra fee. Here we have an interrogation seat, the throne (your feet go through the top) and the ‘Virgin of Nuremberg’.

Am Ostersonntag sind wir nach Bran gefahren, um uns mal Burg Bran oder auch die Törzburg, der Sage nach der Heimat des Grafen Dracula, anzusehen. Eigentlich hatten wir dieses Datum mit Bedacht gewählt, denn die Osterfeiertage werden traditionell in Rumänien sehr festlich im Kreis der Familie begangen.

1/2 Bran Castle - the castle most associated with Dracula. Largely because of tourism. There’s no evidence Bram Stoker knew anything about it. Vlad the Impaler was thought to have been held prisoner there, but that now is disputed.
