Ruins of Unguraș Fortress
Romania, Romania
The Ruins of Unguraș Fortress, located on Fortress Hill above Unguraș village in Mureș County, Romania, were constructed after the Mongol invasion of 1241–1242 as a stone defensive structure and first documented in 1269. Built to protect key Transylvanian routes during the Kingdom of Hungary's expansion, it formed part of broader medieval fortifications alongside sites like Codlea and Rimetea, reflecting post-Mongol efforts to fortify the region against invasions. Now a protected historic monument marked by a small 1996 memorial, the atmospheric remnants offer a glimpse into Romania's turbulent Middle Ages amid scenic rural landscapes.
