Vlad the Impaler

Vlad the Impaler, also known as Vlad III or Vlad Dracula, was a 15th-century ruler of Wallachia (now part of modern-day Romania). He is historically known for his fierce and brutal methods of punishing his enemies, with impalement being his preferred method.

During your visit, explore the reasons behind Vlad’s use of impalement. This method of execution was not only a punishment but also a form of psychological warfare designed to intimidate and deter adversaries.

The Count Dracula

The connection between Vlad the Impaler and Count Dracula stems from Bram Stoker’s 1897 novel, “Dracula”. While Stoker’s character is a fictional vampire, he drew inspiration from the historical figure of Vlad the Impaler.

Welcome to Dracula’s Castle, where history and legend intertwine to create an unforgettable experience. During your visit, you will delve into the fascinating life of Vlad the Impaler and uncover the truths behind the Dracula legend.
