Built in the 15th century by Vlad Tepes, the Chindia Tower is the most important monument of Targoviste and also the symbol of the city.
The actual building measures 27m in height and 9m in diameter and dominates the north-west of the Royal Court ensemble.
Built for military purposes, it served as a guarding buiding and fire tower.
Currently, the Chindia Tower houses an exhibition of objects, documents and weapons that belonged to Vlad Tepes.

Attested during the reign of Mircea the Old, 1417-1418, the Royal Court in Targoviste is a complex of buildings and fortifications, former residences of Romanian voiovodes.
The complex incorporates the first Romanian church and the Royal Palace, the first building that could have served as a royal residence.
The complex was restored in 1961 and entered the tourist circuit. Inside the Royal Church you will find the "Brancoveanu art collection".

Probably founded by Mircea the Old, the monastery was historically mentioned for the first time in 1431 and was later founded by Prince Radu cel Mare, 1499-1501.
The first printing press was installed here, which was also used for printing the first book in 1508, "A Litughier".
St. Nicholas Church, the only remaining original building and one of the most important medieval monuments in the country now houses Radu cel Mare's tomb and the shrine containing the head of Mihai Viteazul.

Included in the tourist circuit in 1986, the Museum of History of Targoviste gathers testimonials dating the origin of the Romanian countries, from the Paleolithic era to 1918.
An important place in the museum is assigned to Neagoe Basarab, Petru Cercel, Mihai Viteazul, Matei Basarab and Constantin Brancoveanu.
Other points of interest are the documents of the Union of the Romanian Principalities and Independence War, providing historical evidence as well as the map of the United Romania.
