Brașov Fortress (Cetățuia)

Brașov Fortress is situated on a hill above the historic city center and was built in the 16th and 17th centuries as part of the city's defensive system. Throughout its history it served as a military fortification, warehouse, and prison. Thanks to its elevated position, it offers a wide view of the old town, the surrounding hills, and the mountain peaks of the Carpathians. The fortress can be reached on foot from the city center or by car.
