 Draculs's
tomb
|
|
Vlad was ultimately killed and
decapitated by unfaithful boyars; his perfumed head sent to the ottoman
sultan as a gift, and as appeasement. The official burial place of Vlad
is the Snagov monastery, on lake snagov, near
Bucharest. There is some mystery surrounding the tomb, however. An
excavation performed in 1931 reportedly found an empty grave, while some
accounts tell of the exhumation of a richly dressed decapitated body.
