Fagaras

The landscape around Făgăraș is a broad plain between the Olt River and the Făgăraș Mountains, which has shaped both the town’s layout and local economy. Set in southern Transylvania, the town is closely associated with Făgăraș Citadel, a moated fortress whose form was developed from the 14th century onward. During the 16th and 17th centuries it served as a residence of Transylvanian princes, and its thick walls remain the defining landmark of the centre. South of town, the Făgăraș range forms part of the Carpathians and includes Romania’s highest mountain country.
