Ancient Dacian settlement

Sarmizegetusa Regia was the capital and the most important military, religious and political centre of the Dacians before the wars with the Roman Empire. Built on top of a 1200 m high mountain, the fortress, consisting of six citadels, was the core of a strategic and defensive system in the Orăștie Mountains. The archaeological site of Sarmizegetusa Regia is located in the village of Grădiștea de Munte in Hunedoara County.
