Famous For Its Dracula Theme, Bran Castle Is Now Used As A Vaccination Spot

Bran Castle in Transylvania is rumored to be the inspiration for the home of Bram Stoker’s 19th-century gothic novel, Dracula has now opened a Covid-19 Vaccination Center every weekend throughout May.

Even the castle’s reputation has always been spooky, opening up a spot for vaccination is actually a good idea as it could raise awareness among residents.

Not only that the venue is fascinating, but those who come for vaccination also won’t need to go through difficulties to make an appointment and after receiving the jab, they are given an illustrated ‘vaccination diploma’. In order to keep up with the castle’s atmosphere, the healthcare professionals who are giving the shot wear fang stickers. After the fun process of receiving their needles, the vaccinated visitors are given free access to a tour of medieval torture tools.

Originally, Bran Castle was built in the 13th Century before it was rebuild at the same place in 1382 after it was destroyed in battle. The town of Bran was given to her in the year 1920 as an appreciation of her efforts in uniting the country. It was an administrative building during the 18th century but now it is a museum dedicated to displaying furniture and the art collection of Queen Marie of Romania.

The visitors of Dracula’s castle will learn more about royalty compared to horror because the queen’s belongings are displayed in the castle. Those who go to the castle for vaccination will have the privilege of looking at the view of the castle’s outskirts from its conical towers that are surrounded by thick forests.

Due to the pandemic, Romania remains closed to most United States travelers. Even so, Bran Castle is not the only unique tourist site that is used as a vaccination center as the American Museum of Natural History in New York and Disneyland in California was also a temporary vaccination site.

While in England, people have been going to the 800-year-old Salisbury Cathedral to get their vaccines. Tourists from around the United States could also get their one-shot vaccination at places like Central Park and Times Square.
