Lovely photos! I wonder if Dracula used to hang out here?

Thanks, Will!
Since Dracula was a fictional character, I guess he might have hanged out just about anywhere
However, I’m not so sure if Vlad Ţepeş (Vlad the Impaler, the prince of Wallachia, who inspired Bram Stoker’s Dracula novel) used to visit this church often, considering his frequent conflicts with Transylvanian boyars.
