• Cetatea Rupea (Pass by)

  The fortress of Rupea nowadays covers an area of approximately 11 ha (~27 acres) together with its walls, towers, and inner courtyards. Because of its dominant position near the European route E60, to the north, and on the right of the city, it is a remarkable presence from a great distance. While it was first attested in 1324, the fortress wasn`t built at that precise moment but must have been realized at least a few decades earlier.
