A Tour of Bran (DRACULA) Castle / Transylvania / Romania [ 4K ]
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 окт 2024
- Bran, also known as Dracula's Castle is Romania’s most visited landmark. It is located in the village of Bran, about 30 km from Brasov. The video shows a tour of Dracula castle.
The Castle owes its fame to its history, imposing towers, and the myth created around Bram Stocker's fictitious character Dracula.
It's widely believed that Vlad III Dracula (Wallachian Prince), known by the nickname Vlad the Impaler, has served as an inspiration for Stoker’s character, Count Dracula. In 1992, it was released Bram Stoker's Dracula horror film directed and produced by Francis Ford Coppola.
Since Bran Castle is the only castle in Transylvania that fits Bram Stoker’s description of Dracula’s Castle, it has gained the fame of being Dracula’s Castle.
However, Bran Castle was not home of Vlad III. It is believed that he might have never been at that place. The real residence of Vlad III Dracula is the castle Poenari, in the county of Arges, Romania. The castle has long been abandoned, now it's in ruins.
Today, Bran is open as a museum, largely devoted to Queen Marie, the British wife of King Ferdinand I of Romania. From 1920 to 1948 Bran Castle served as a royal residence. You will see on display art and furniture collected by Queen Marie.
You can also buy extra tickets to see the medieval torture instruments exhibition and the Time tunnel where an interesting multimedia show is played.

I visited this castle about twenty five years ago and was surprised by the fairly pleasant atmosphere within its walls. It didn't feel sinister in any way. I believe that the last full time resident was a member of the Romanian royalty in the 1930s. It's unlikely that Dracula ever occupied the castle. His main refuge was at Poenari, a mountain top citadel about thirty miles or so from Castle Bran and it's a much more brutal structure. It's certainly worth a visit.
The real Castle of Vlad Tepes is in ruins and this Castle is just another property that he had but he almost did not live there..
Seeing as Dracula isn't real and is a fictional character created by Bram Stoker
@@antoniogarcia9648 Unfortunately, I didn't have an opportunity to visit the site at Poenari.
@@Geekyguy92 Stoker's character isn't real but there was certainly a historical character Dracula who was a 14th century Walachian prince who fought against the Ottomans. A five minute search on the internet will give you plenty of information on him.
I don't believe you
Those windows are perfect to watch the world go by, read or write poetry in. Exquisite sigh
Nice view for impalings, too.
Transilvania is unique!!!❤
Saludos from an argentinian immigrant 🇦🇷🇷🇴
Stolen from Hungary😂🇭🇺✌🏻...
on était en colonie a 5 km de ce château .un soir 3 jours avant de rentrer en France on et allez la bas avec 5 potes .on a attendu que tout le monde dorme .on a fait le mur .et on aet allez la bas on avait 15 ans .arriver sur place tout était fermer bien sur il y avait personne. On a réussi a rentrer par une cave .je peut te dire qu ont avait tous les grelots on et restez une bonne heure mais trop louche le truc on et repartit et en repassant dans la cave j ai vu un bout de ferraille qui sortait de terre alors j ai tirer dessus .et il et sorti de terre et s était un bougeoir en forme aigle il y en avais 2 il y avais encore un bout de bougie. j ai pris les 2 très ancien quand je les et fait estimer 40 ans après aujourdhui j ai 56 ans je les es toujours et le vieux bout de bougie et toujours dedans
I think they just made it look that way to make it more like a tourist attraction that's why it looks so modern
Dracula book was written in 1864 then why you can say that just for tourist attraction.
Today, every castle is hiding an element of Dracula Castle. This account of Bran Castle is inspiring.
Visited in 1989 with a tour group how exciting Romania is a lovely country
Wow that is a brilliantly done exhibiition/tour. I would love to go there. It looks amazing. The countryside is just beautiful.
This is the most unique castle I have ever seen, it is so heart warming, every room. I can tell a woman of wonderful taste created the decorations and settings. Thanks for the video and I will subscribe.
Vlad the Impaler's castle is actually Poenari, located about 60km from Bran.
Ok, then what is this??
@@thomaschippie9057 Um, maybe Bran Castle?
@@thomaschippie9057 A castle historians think Vlad III may have been held in while in custody. Other than that, place has nothing to do with Vlad or vampires.
The real Castle of Vlad Tepes is in ruins and this Castle is just another property that he had but he almost did not live there..
Exactly so‼️ And correct me if I'm wrong but Vlad the Impaler's castle 🏰 is on a Mountain Ridge and seemingly inaccessible. It's also in ruins.
It’s so much easier to visit the Bran Castle with a car. I went there via public transport (the bus) Aaah, I miss those times. Look at the castle. Not a lot of tourists. 😌
I was there during the week and because of the pandenic there were just a few people, which I liked actually. In normal times, there is a lot of people and parking there could be a big headache.
lazy
@@dontfearthereaper2887 Who is lazy? I can't tell from these two comments?
Went there in 1994 on the bus from Brasov-nobody had a clue where Draculas castle ,or who he was either, so they sent me to Bran,there was a village shop and not much else.Two years later you could buy a tshirt at the same shop so they had obviously caught on quickly-must be a real tourist trap now.
I found out recently my ancestors lived on the hill right under the castle. Really cool to find out
Awesome‼️
Romania is beautiful ❤️
💞🇹🇩𝐘𝐞𝐚𝐡🇹🇩💞
A little too well preserved and renovated...
It's not the real castle. But it is beautiful. Vlad the Impaler's castle is in ruins.
This was very enjoyable. You put this together very well.
Thank you very much:)
My eldest brother translated the Dracula Book in Marathi Indian Language, some time in 1958/60. Now I had a visual treat thru your nice VDO clip. Great, I enjoyed it thourghly. !
Thank you for your share, happy that you enjoyed it:)
This seems to be such an interesting place, I hope I can visit sometime in the future. Seeing and sharing places like this is why I love traveling and make videos so much!
Beautiful palace. I write a vampire series and Vlad is in it (briefly). I always love seeing well-done videos of the mythology of Vlad Dracula that Stokes did. In the Romanian people, he is a hero, not a vampire. In the time tunnel, the video shot of the portrait that moves is very well done.
Do you mind me asking what Vampire series you write? All the best.
I’d like to know as well.
Dracula is vampire bat know this 21s this 90%people are vampire
It was really Vlad the Impaler
stunning how beautiful it is and so are the surroundings
Incredible, beautifu; piece of history. Love the intro music❤
Es nupat tur biju.Man ļoti patika.Bija diezgan daudz cilvēku.Lai apskatītu,vajadzēja pagaidīt.
Nice. I have visited this place. Its worth visit❤
It's not really Vlad Dracula's castle. That's in another part of Romania, but it is one of the sites that apparently inspired Bram Stoker's novel.
Thanks for saving me a trip ... Not even his castle.. Hmph
Bran itself is stunning.
Just here after listening Sunday Suspense.. ✌️😅
It looks lovely and so well kept 🖤
Thankyou ⚘
The real Castle of Vlad Tepes is in ruins and this Castle is just another property that he had but he almost did not live there..
Amazing Tour in Dracula Castle !!! 🧡💛
Thank you:)
Thank you for the tour! I doubt I'll ever get to see it! ❤❤❤
thanks for thr tour very good
Thank you for watching:)
Vlad the Impaler's castle is Poenari located 60km from Bran
Is beautiful.
Real Dracula castle is located 60km from that place
Just awesome 😊
Jak miło znowu wrócić wspomnieniami w to miejsce, dziękuję 🤗🇵🇱😘
E superb acest castel mi-place sal viZitez
Stolen from Hungary😂🇭🇺✌🏻...
Sad they updated it so much. Doesn't even look real 🥺
What doesn’t look real?
@@crusaderofthelowlands3750 this castle maybe
Și de unde știi tu asta? Erai cumva in 1400 pe acolo? 😂
It's beautiful
Bel posto la Transilvania 👍
Beautiful! Very very castlevania, they should include that secret room where you access the inverted castle😅
It's so beautiful and amazing
Thank u for video and information 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thank you for watching and commenting:)
@@aboutravel. welcome ☺️
Been there recently . Worth the visit and wasn’t disappointed . Got to the grave site as well in Bucharest .
2.00 l love those WINDOW SEATS.......
It's on my bucket list!
Tchenks. O Mein God. Super.
Someone posted this video on my FB timeline today and I must say, it really bought back memories of our 2 visits in 2012 and 2013 respectively. Both during the day and through the night.
Thank you very much
Thanks for sharing!
I dont see original castle, that looks very modern if you ask me.....
True
Sure looks like some of the movie sets in many scenes, and they can fund the castle for movies instead of pushing tourism with restrictions. Stay home and spend any there. Gives all of us some influence back that makes sense.
Listen to The children of the night. What músic they make
The real Castle of Vlad Tepes is in ruins and this Castle is just another property that he had but he almost did not live there..
It was built in 1377 so it is very old
This was done so well😊
I hope I can go to this place someday. It looks awesome. I'm making an animated TV show which has a family of vampires called the Karloffs(if you get the reference, you get the reference), who live in a castle that's actually based off of this castle in design(Well, Bran AND Corvin Castle)!
Beautiful ❤️
I was at my doctor's office yesterday. We Started talking @bout traveling,@nd she told me was Romanian and that Draculas Castle and transylvania @re real!! @ 59 Years old and having watched Dracula films @ll my life I never knew it was Authentic! Not the Dead part etc😊
As you know, today is Halloween and I’m going there in five days and I’m staying in “Dracula room” in a hotel nearby where you have a full view of the castle out your window and I’m visiting the castle aswell
Have a great time and be aware of real vampires there:)
@@aboutravel. there’s none
@@aboutravel. what real vampires
@@noor-dl8wf of course, there is no vampires, it’s just a fiction. Enjoy your time with no fear
great song choice!
cool vid! cant wait to visit and see this place for myself
It reminds me of the 2004 film Vanhelsing. Aaaaa those old days 🤧.
A very Castle of Drácula is a Castle of poenari to some 15 milles curtea de arges in the top of the mountain; Bran Castle is principally for a tourists for a " good" state of conservation ; and you have yo climb 1.482 steps to reach it
Right up there with Eagles Nest as a tourist destination. A little off the beaten path but worth the effort
Stupendo.
Tenho os 4 filmes da Geração Vamp, filmados aí na Romênia cujo ator principal e Anders Hoovs , estão na minha coleção , amo Dracula desde a infância, assim como Bela Lugo si, Cristo per Lee e tantos outros. Dracula imortal. Parabéns pela publicação.
I'm sure that i'm gonna visite this castle some day.
It's a wonderful place
Absolutely wonderful!!!
I’m watching this video after I finished reading Hunting Prince Dracula
❤România❤ 🇷🇴💙💛❤😉👍🤝🥰
Video: shows quality recordings of the castle with serene music and horror clips
Me: who’s cleaning the entire castle??
super cool! Thumps up.👍
Sembrerebbe più a Museo al interno che ad un Castello 🏰 che si vede dal esterno...!
Thank u 🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺 Lahore Pakistan
È bello ...ma ( DRACULA) ha prelevato il sangue agli turisti 😂😂😂😂🍬🍬🍬...!!!??? Bellissima musica al pianoforte 🎹💯💯💯💯💯..!
Wow very clean and niceee
Super cool
One must keep in mind that Prince Dracula is considered a national hero in Romania, not a monster.
The original is Poenari Castle Bran Castle is the one Bram Stoker used in His Novel
Of course it just looks like a damn amusement park now🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
Agreed
It’s a museum…
Wow amazing Castle 🥰🥰🥰
Greetings from Pacific
Beautiful place to visit. Greetings from New Orleans..
I didn’t know they turned it into a haunted house lol
Oh My Gosh it's quite lovely I imagined a a dark space and unlivable area but this is a lovely space and fascinating architecture
Well kept
nice capture
Who else besides me thinks this would be a great punishment for Sal on Impractical Jokers lol
He’d piss himself for sure 🤣
Lol right? They need to do the punishment at night to make it really funny. I could see him yelling and threatening to punch everyone, meanwhile the rest of the Jokers are laughing their asses off lol 😆
@@salsvintageshow6664 ,,, they always gave poor Murray the worst punishments ,,, even throwing him out of a plane ,,, but he did it,,, I honestly think sal would quit straight up ,,, he wouldn’t do it 😂
Awesome
Castle
Ok
Ugh
I am a ENORMOUSLY HUGE Dracula fan (DRACUAL IS "PURELY FICTION", ...though I love it tremendously!!!!), ...AND this place IS TOO CLEAN and BLAN to be real!
I was told that there NO REAL DRACULA'S CASTLE, and what if dubbed as Dracula's Castle is in ruins and can ONLY BE VIEWED AT A DISTANCE; NOT APPROACHED CLOSELY BY ANY VISITORS.
You are correct, although Vlad the Impaler did earn the nickname Dracula.
Nice online tour
Actually,Vlad Țepeș Castle is at Poenari ( Poienari). But you are welcome at Bran too.🇷🇴
Bran castle is NOT actually in Transylvania but in Wallachia🧐
Agreed
Bitch Bran castle is in Transylvania 💀💀
@@dianetheisen8664 agrees what ? Bran castle is in Transylvania, open a map sometimes.
O verdadeiro castelo onde Vlad III Drácula morou não existe mais. Este castelo é um ponto turístico, que gera renda e empregos.
i live in the walls from here
The authors name was Bram, short for Abraham. The book and movie were awesome
When I hear " Dracula" , I remember
Christopher Lee.
Returning to life time and again since the ancient Middle Ages, the evil lord Dracula has driven people to terror. Each time Dracula returned from the dead, the heroic Belmont Clan fought him in the shadows, wielding the holy whip called the Vampire Killer. Through their efforts, humanity avoided the Darkness, securing prosperity.
A magyarság gyönyörű Erdélye! 🥰
In your dreams you have Balaton lake😅
But didn't Count Dracos line the path with heads of his enemies on a pike, stuck in the ground.
Not sure about that. But Vlad the Impaler DID impale people on Spikes in the ground to deter enemies. He earned the nickname, Dracula.
U won't believe it's my dream to celebrate my honeymoon in this castle
une belle vidéo💚💚💚💚🤍💯👍👍🐺🦊🦅🦅🦅🌼🌼🌼🏵🏵🏵🏵💐🐞
Nice video. I have to visit here :-)
Thank you for this amazing content .
Thank you for your kind words:)
Bran Castle is where he was held prisoner. Vlad's castle is actually out in the forest on a mountain side.
Legend has it that a family of vampire slayers returns every 10 years after their death.
Understanders will understand
It's so modern
When did you visit; it looks empty (as in no crowded)
In 2021 during Covid restrictions.....and yes, there were just a few people
His spirit still reigns...
But not at this place
♥️💛💙VISIT BRAȘOV! ♥️💛💙
