Destination weekend clay castle from the valley of the sibiu county, Romania

If you've ever dreamed of a fairy tale, then you surely imagined the Castle of the Valley of the Fairies. Located just 40 kilometers from Sibiu (see places of accommodation), this unusual castle, which seems to have been built by hobbits, is made only from natural materials. Although Castle Hill is not yet ready to receive guests, its unique beauty has made this place one of the most popular tourist attractions this year.To get to Castle Hill from the Zane Valley, leaving Sibiu, you have to head to Făgăraş on the European road E68. Near the village of Porumbacu de Jos you turn right and go another 9 km until you reach the castle, while admiring the huge Fagaras Mountains that will rise under your gaze.Even if you still can not stay at Castle Hill in the Zane Valley, it does not mean that it is not worth visiting. The castle is made of natural materials, the walls being made of a mixture of earth, water, straw, clay and sand. The roof with thousands of slopes is made of spindle shingle and the towers are made of river stone. Despite the unusual forms of this structure, the Castle of Lut is perfectly integrated with the surrounding area.

Bucharest, who decided to build such a wonderful place, testified that he was inspired by the stories of the Grimm brothers, but also by his own idyllic childhood in a village in the Fagaras Country. The Castle of Lut has 10 rooms, and by the end of 2017, it will most likely open its doors to the guests. Until then, we only have to admire him from the outside!
