Complexul Muzeal Curtea Domnească

The Princely Court Museum Complex in Târgoviște occupies the site of the former residence of the rulers of Wallachia, in a city that served as the capital for nearly three centuries. The ensemble includes the ruins of the princely palace, court churches and, above all, the famous Chindia Tower, a watchtower and bell tower raised during the reign of Vlad the Impaler that has become the symbol of the city. Visitors can climb the tower for a view over the old court and the town, discovering along the way exhibitions dedicated to the history of the Wallachian rulers.
The complex also includes the Princely Church, with valuable murals, as well as remains that evoke life at the court of the Basarabs. Every stone of this place tells of the Romanian medieval era, of legendary rulers and of the central role that Târgoviște played in the country's history. Set in the heart of the city, the complex is easy to reach and is the main tourist attraction of Târgoviște, indispensable for history enthusiasts.
