Bran castle is
often referred to as "Dracula's castle." this designation is a bit
of a misnomer, for there is apparently no evidence that it was ever
owned, lived in or visited by Vlad Tepes (although he may have stayed
there on occasion in his travels between Tirgoviste and Brasov).
The castle is definitely linked to Vlad, however, in that his
grandfather, Mircea the Great, was one of its first owners. The
castle also certainly represents a significant architectural and
historical landmark.
