Chindia Tower is a prominent historical monument located in Târgoviște, Romania. Built during the reign of Vlad III (commonly known as Vlad the Impaler) in the 15th century, the tower served as both a watchtower and a defensive structure. Standing approximately 27 meters tall, it offers panoramic views of the surrounding area, including the city and the Ialomița River. The tower is part of the larger Princely Court complex, which served as the residence of Wallachian princes.
