For a mere $78 million Bran Castle, home of the Dracula legend, could be yours. Put up for sale by the Habsburg family, the classic 15th century Transylvanian castle has become too much of burden for the family to maintain.
The family hopes to sell the castle to the government to be used as a tourist attraction but government officials are complaining the price tag is too high. The family just wants the castle preserved for the family and the town.
Being the biggest tourist attraction in the area fears are that the castle might be turned into a theme park tarnishing the pristine countryside. The infamous Prince “Vlad the Impaler” is reputed to have spent only one night at the castle.
