Some say that this is "the most beautiful Renaissance castle in Transylvania".

    The castle is lovely. Wonder if they are preparing a special celebration for Halloween? Will someone special be attending?

    The most beautiful? I would have to agree - even though I have not seen the others. Beautiful card for PFF!

    It is indeed a pleasing castle with beautiful renaissance harmony.
    I spent a couple of days in Transylvania years ago, not enough time.

    Great castle. Since you learned us about the Maxicards, I see a lot of very old postcards with stamps on the picture side. Are these vintage Maxicards?

    Bob, it depends on the postmark date if they are really vintage.

    What a great postcard. I love that the stamp is on front and is a part of the layout.

    Ah, beautiful indeed. Reminds me of the famous castle in Segovia, Spain.

    I really, really love this one. I find all castles fascinating. I can imagine Vlad in this one, easily.
