Evocative view of Rasnov Fortress tower standing against the breathtaking panorama of the snow-capped Carpathian Mountains. This ancient medieval fortification, built by the Teutonic Knights in the 13th century, offers one of the most spectacular views in Transylvania. The mighty stone walls of the fortress contrast magnificently with the conifer forests and snow-covered alpine peaks extending across the horizon, creating a landscape that evokes the millennial history of this legendary region.
