Visit Targoviste Royal Court, the former capital of Walachia Principality from where Vlad the Impaler ruled. Targoviste Royal Court, which was conceived as a complex of buildings that served both as an administrative center and as a dwelling for the ruler, his family, numerous courtiers, and servants. Meetings of the local council took place here, important trials were carried out and documents of the chancellery were issued from here.
