The ruins of the old palace of the Romanian (Wallachian) princes.
The statue is modern and it represents Vlad Tepes, who was one of the princes of Wallachia who governed from this place.
The first Princely Court was built by him on this very site.
The original court built by Vlad Tepes didn't survive, the ruins you can see here today are the remains of a palace built on the same site by Mircea Ciobanu, a later prince.
Nevertheless, I think that this place has a more legitimate claim to the title of "Dracula's Castle" than Bran Castle in Transylvania has, because at least in this case, it is a fact that Vlad Tepes/Dracula actually built a court on this site, while the connection between Bran Castle and Dracula is a myth, as far as I know.
