On the North-western edge of Târgu Neamţ one can spot the Neamţ Fortress, a place of legend for all Romanians. Built at the beginning of the Moldavian State, during the reign of Peter Mușat (1375-1391), the fortress was one of the most important fortifications of the Medieval times.
The Neamţ Fortress was located in a strategic place, close to the highest peak of Pleşu hills, and had to guard the road that crossed the mountain in Transylvania, from Târgu Neamţ to Pipirig, as well as Moldova and Siret rivers. The view over the Ozana Valey will leave us speechless.
