The Sarmizegetusa Regia

Did you know that Romania is home to one of the oldest fortified settlements in Europe? The Sarmizegetusa Regia, located in the Carpathian Mountains, was the capital of the Dacian Kingdom and served as the residence of King Decebalus.

This ancient site, dating back to the 1st century BC, features impressive fortifications, megalithic walls, and a complex network of tunnels. Its strategic location made it a formidable stronghold against Roman invasions.

Southport:

Beautiful Port Map from @MisjayMaps.

A strong harbour fort and a fortified town. Are they defending from pirates? Other nations at war? Or some sea monster?

Prejmer Fortified Church by Dorux Photography

This superbly preserved complex has the most powerful fortified walls in Transylvania at 4.5m thick.

Prejmer’s fortress was originally constructed in the early 1200s by Teutonic knights.

A 15th-century reconstruction shaped it into the battering-ram-proof fortification that stands today, encircling a Gothic church.

The 270 store rooms were once packed with produce to allow inhabitants to stay fed while under attack.
