Always very busy and, in my opinion, not worth it. Beautiful from the outside!

(Translated by Google) The castle is very beautiful, everything is beautiful... except for the fact that it is almost empty inside, the entrance fee is relatively high for what it offers inside especially. We only pay for the name, the inside is almost empty (Original) Castelul este foarte frumos, totul este frumos... în afară de faptul că este aproape gol pe înăuntru, taxa de intrare relativ mare pentru ceea ce ofera in interior mai ales. Plătim doar numele, interiorul este aproape gol

(Translated by Google) I absolutely do not recommend it! Exaggeratedly high prices for nothing - empty rooms, crowded, small courtyard, you felt like you were suffocating inside. The castle and its construction are beautiful, but its interior does not justify the asking price. (Original) Nu recomand absolut deloc! Prețuri exagerat de mari pentru nimic- camere goale, inghesuială, curte micuță, simțeai că te sufoci inăuntru. Castelul si construcția sa este frumoasă, dar interiorul acestuia nu justifica prețul cerut.

Only worth it for bragging rights, experience itself is pretty bad, huge crowds, tour groups, etc. and that was on a weekday at 9am, I imagine weekends being much worse.

(Translated by Google) Bran Castle, the alleged castle of Dracula, except that in reality the real Vlad III the Impaler (Vlad Țepeș) never passed through there, or at least this is not historically documented. The connection with the cinematic Count Dracula is purely for tourist reasons. And the truth is that visitors to the castle are probably indifferent to its real history and are looking for the legend. No problem! However, the castle is privately owned and belongs to Archduke Dominic von Habsburg, son of Princess Ileana, who inherited it from his mother after a legal dispute with the Romanian state in 2006. In other words, and given the huge number of visitors, the Duke invested in its restoration and now enjoys the profits from its exploitation (the ticket costs 140 lei). The castle has great architectural interest, the wider area around it is well-kept, but touring its premises is problematic, due to the excessively large number of visitors. We were particularly impressed by how low the ceilings of the premises are. I think there should be visiting zones with a maximum number of people entering the castle per zone. However, if you are really interested in learning more about Vlad Țepeș, it is better to take a trip to the beautiful Sighișoara where you can find the house where he was born and raised. (Original) Το κάστρο Μπράν, το φερόμενο ως κάστρο του Δράκουλα, μόνο που στην πραγματικότητα ο πραγματικός Βλαντ Γ΄ ο Παλουκωτής (Vlad Țepeș) δεν πέρασε ποτέ από εκεί, ή τουλάχιστον αυτό δεν τεκμηριώνεται ιστορικά. Η σύνδεση με τον κινηματογραφικό κόμη Δράκουλα είναι καθαρά για τουριστικούς λόγους. Και η αλήθεια είναι ότι οι επισκέπτες του κάστρου μάλλον αδιαφορούν για την πραγματική ιστορία του και αναζητούν τον μύθο. Κανένα πρόβλημα! Πάντως το κάστρο είναι ιδιόκτητο και ανήκει στον Δούκα Δομήνικο της Αυστρίας-Τοσκάνης (Archduke Dominic von Habsburg), γιο της Πριγκίπισσας Ileana, που το κληρονόμησε από τη μητέρα του έπειτα από δικαστική διαμάχη με το Ρουμανικό δημόσιο το 2006. Μεν άλλα λόγια και με δεδομένη την τεράστια επισκεψιμότητα, ο Δούκας επένδυσε στην αναστήλωσή του και τώρα απολαμβάνει τα κέρδη από την εκμετάλλευση (το εισιτήριο κοστίζει 140 lei). Το κάστρο έχει μεγάλο αρχιτεκτονικό ενδιαφέρον, ο ευρύτερος χώρος γύρω από αυτό είναι φροντισμένος, αλλά η περιήγηση στους χώρους του είναι προβληματική, εξαιτίας του υπερβολικά μεγάλου αριθμού των επισκεπτών. Μας έκανε ιδιαίτερη εντύπωση το πόσο χαμηλά είναι οι οροφές των χώρων. Θεωρώ ότι θα έπρεπε να υπάρχουν ζώνες επίσκεψης με καθορισμό ενός μέγιστου αριθμού εισερχομένων στο κάστρο ανά ζώνη. Πάντως αν σας ενδιαφέρει πραγματικά να μάθετε περισσότερα για τον Vlad Țepeș καλύτερα να κάνετε μία εκδρομή στην πανέμορφη Sighișoara όπου βρίσκετε το σπίτι που γεννήθηκε και μεγάλωσε.
