About Brașov
Brașov is Romania's most visited and most beautiful city — a remarkably well-preserved medieval Saxon town (founded as Kronstadt by Teutonic Knights in the 13th century) set in a dramatic mountain bowl between the peaks of the Carpathian range, with the Hollywood-style BRASOV letters on the Tampa mountain above the city and the finest medieval fortifications in Transylvania surrounding an old town of exceptional architectural quality. The Black Church (Biserica Neagră) — the largest Gothic church in Romania and southeastern Europe, blackened by a 17th-century fire that gave it its name — dominates the central Piața Sfatului (Council Square) and is the defining monument of Saxon Transylvania.
Brașov's surrounding landscape is extraordinary — Poiana Brașov, the finest ski resort in Romania (20 minutes from the city), Bran Castle (the Dracula Castle of tourist imagination, 30km southwest), Peleș Castle (the fairy-tale royal palace at Sinaia, 45km south) and the Bucegi mountains with their famous Sphinx and Babele rock formations (accessible by cable car) are all within easy reach. The city's Schei district — the historic neighbourhood of Romanian Orthodox inhabitants who were excluded from the Saxon-walled city and built their own community outside the walls — has the 15th-century St. Nicholas Church and the first Romanian school (1495) as its heritage anchors. Brașov has a rapidly growing reputation as one of the most attractive cities in Eastern Europe for both tourism and relocation.
Important Transfer Information
Medieval Saxon Heritage: Brașov's historic centre is one of the finest examples of medieval Saxon urban heritage in Central Europe — the Council Square (Piața Sfatului), the Black Church (largest Gothic church in southeastern Europe), the Catherine's Gate, the White Tower, and the circuit of medieval walls and bastions (each defended by a different guild — the Weavers' Bastion with its extraordinary diorama of medieval Brașov is the finest) form an ensemble of remarkable completeness and quality.
Bran Castle and Dracula Tourism: Bran Castle, 30km southwest of Brașov, is marketed worldwide as 'Dracula's Castle' — though Bram Stoker almost certainly never visited Romania and the connection to Vlad III (the historical inspiration for Dracula) is tenuous at best, the castle's dramatic hilltop setting and Gothic-style towers create the perfect vampire castle image. The most visited tourist site in Romania, requiring advance ticket booking in peak season.
Mountain Access: Brașov is the premier gateway to the Romanian Carpathians — Poiana Brașov ski resort (20 minutes), the Bucegi plateau and its cable car, the Piatra Craiului National Park and the Retezat mountains are all accessible. The city serves as the best base for mountain hiking, skiing and adventure sports in Romania.
