About this quest
The enemies are at the gates. Brasov needs you.
In this self-guided walking tour of Brasov's Old Town, you play a medieval scout soldier racing to prepare the city's defenses before the siege begins. Your mission: arm the bastions, protect the children, secure the food supply, and poison the enemy's water before retreating to the hilltop fortress.
Walk the medieval walls of Kronstadt from the inside out, visiting the Black Church, the Blacksmiths' Bastion, the Black Tower, the White Tower, the Graft Bastion, and the Guard Fortress on Straja Hill.
One of the most immersive things to do in Brasov, this medieval Brasov walking tour combines real history, fortress architecture, and a time-pressured mission that only ends when the gate closes behind you.
