Bran Castle (Castelul Bran in Romanian) near Brașov in Transylvania not far from the border with Wallachia is a listed historical monument and a tourist spot in Romania.

Nicknamed “Dracula’s castle”, it is associated, in the collective memory, with Vlad III the Impaler; just as improperly as Hunedoara castle, because he probably never stayed there.
