HUNEDOARA (Vajdahunyad/Eisenmarkt), 16km south of Deva, would be dismissed as an ugly, smoggy, industrial town were it not also the site of Corvin Castle, the greatest fortress in Romania (Tues-Sun 9am-5pm).
Founded during the fourteenth century and rebuilt in 1453 by Iancu de Hunedoara, with a Renaissance-style wing added by his son, Mátyás Corvinus, and Baroque additions by Gabriel Bethlen in the seventeenth century, it was extensively (and tastefully) restored between 1965 and 1970.
Appointed voivode of Transylvania in 1441, Hunyadi later became regent of Hungary and a kingmaker (responsible for the overthrow of Vlad Dracul and the coronation of the Impaler), while his own son, Mátyás Corvinus, rose to be one of Hungary's greatest kings.
