Dracula
TimM:
An episode of the old 1970's show, In Search Of (that was hosted by Leonard Nimoy) that dealt with Dracula. They were actually allowed to film in then Communist controlled Romania.

No, the Castle was first built by Teutonic knights.
Vlad Dracula only passed through this castle.
TimM:
And the castle is still famous for being associated with him.
Marc:
Yes :-)
That's tourism marketing :)
But with Dracula or without Dracula it's still worth a visit :)
TimM:
But it does help to have a famous name to bring in the tourists.
