Rasnov Fortress 2022

[Râşnov Fortress is located on a rocky hilltop in the Carpathian Mountains, 200m above the town of Râşnov. First mentioned in an official document in 1331, the fortress was built by Teutonic Knights as protection against invading Tartars. It had at least 30 houses, a school, a chapel and other buildings more commonly associated with a village. The defensive system included nine towers, two bastions and a drawbridge, surrounded by 500-foot-slopes on the north, south and west sides. ](https://romaniatourism.com/castles-fortresses-romania-rasnov-fortress.html) Râşnov fortress was at the time undergoing maintenance and restoration works, as a result, access inside the fortress was not be permitted.
