Viscri

One of the most interesting Saxon fortified churches is located in the village of Viscri (Weisskirch in German).  The name comes from the German Weisse Khirche, meaning white church.

Unlike other Transylvanian fortified churches, Viscri was built around 1100 by the Szekler population and taken over by Saxon colonists in 1185. This explains why this unique gothic church displays a plain straight ceiling rather than a traditional vaulted one. In the 14th century, the eastern section was rebuilt and around 1525, the first fortification walls with towers were added. In the 18th century, the church was endowed with a second defensive wall. Inside, you can admire a classic 19th century altar featuring a Blessing of the Children centerpiece by the painter J. Paukratz from Rupea. During 1970-1971, the fortified church underwent major renovations. 

Bran

Surrounded by an aura of mystery and legend and perched high atop a 200-foot-high rock, Bran Castle owes its fame to its imposing towers and turrets as well as to the myth created around Bram Stocker's Dracula.  

Built on the site of a Teutonic Knights stronghold dating from 1212, the castle was first documented in an act issued by Louis I of Hungary on November 19, 1377, giving the Saxons of Kronstadt (Brasov) the privilege to build the Citadel.

Although Stoker never visited Transylvania, the Irish author relied on research and his vivid imagination to create the dark and intimidating stomping ground of Count Dracula, leading to persistent myths that it was once the home of Vlad Tepes, ruler of Walachia. While the association with Dracula is sketchy at best, the castle continues to hold a strong attraction for all fans of the Count.

Prince Charles

and 

Romania

Charles first visited the country in 1998 on an official visit - the only time he's visited on business. He is seen here with the then Romanian President, Emil Constantinescu

Prince Charles fell in love with Romania on his very first visit. He now regularly returns to the country for holidays. He has two properties out there that are available for the public to rent.

One of the Prince Charles house in Zalanpatak, near Baraolt, Szeklerland, Transylvania.

He's been so inspired he's now planted a Transylvanian Meadow at Highgrove, his Gloucestershire home, using a wild flower seed mix mostly gathered from the hay meadows at one of his properties.

A Field of wildflowers belonging to Prince Charles

You don't have to be in Transylvania for long to realise why the Prince is enraptured by it. The country looks as England might have done around the year 1800. There are no fences. Horses are a common sight on the roads pulling trailers and in the fields yoked to ploughs. 

"It's the last corner of Europe where you see true sustainability and complete resilience. There's so much we can learn from it before it's too late."
