HORA: Castles of Romania – Echoes of History and Legend Exhibit

Visit the Romanian American Cultural Center every Sunday in August to explore the architectural splendor and cultural legacy of Romania’s most iconic fortresses. From the fairytale elegance of Peleș Castle to the imposing silhouette of Bran, the exhibit reveals a landscape shaped by empires, trade routes, and the dramatic sweep of the Carpathian Mountains. Each castle – whether royal residence, military stronghold, or medieval citadel – showcases the artistry, beliefs, and resilience of the people who built and defended them. Through photographs, historical narratives, and regional context, guests will discover how Romania’s castles continue to serve as symbols of identity and imagination.
