Rapsóné Fortress
Romania, Romania
Rapsóné Fortress, also known as Rapsone's Castle, is a lesser-known medieval ruin located near Praid in Harghita County, Romania, associated with the Hungarian noble family Rapsone and built as a defensive structure in the late Middle Ages amid the Eastern Carpathians. Featuring typical Transylvanian fortress elements like stone walls and towers suited for refuge during regional conflicts, it reflects the strategic fortifications common in the Székely Land to protect against invasions. Today, it stands as an obscure historical site with limited documentation and signage primarily in Hungarian, attracting few visitors despite its ties to local noble heritage and rugged mountain setting.
