Christian Wilderness Press  -  Jim Durham's visit to   ROMANIA – Rasov Fortress, and city of Sighisoara

Go on missionary trips several times a year with Jim Durham...email  Jim:  jrd1942@juno.com


        Here is the next portion of my trip to Romania.  Inside Romania, this is part of the trip to Dracula’s Castle (see that page). 
        The Brasov Fortress was built in the 1200’s AD situated on a  high peak overlooking the town of Brasov.  The fortress had a deep water well of about 450 feet, which had been dug by two Turkish prisoners who had been promised their freedom when they reached water.  They walked out free 17 years later.
        The city of Sighisoara still has a lot of ancient buildings and is considered one of the best preserved medieval towns in Europe.  The city dates back further than the 1200’s AD.
