Brasov
Brasov, or”Kronstadt" was founded by the Knights of the Teutonic Order in the 13th century. One of the most impressive landmarks in Brasov is the Black Church, a Gothic-style church that dates back to the 14th century. The church was named after the damage it suffered during a great fire in the 17th century, which blackened its walls. Nowadays, it is one of the most iconic buildings in Brasov, with its impressive bell tower and beautiful stained glass windows.
Brasov's rich heritage, history, and architecture make it one of the jewels of Transylvania. Its historic center is a mix of Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque styles, with colorful houses, cobblestone streets, and cozy cafes.
