I find pretty interesting that the town is linked in wikipedia with invasions of the Ottoman army, as this was once lead by Sultan Mehmet II, who also conquered Constantinople and fought and was defeated by [wait for it...] Prince Vlad III Dracula of Wallachia.
Two famous Josef's are also connected to the town- Emperor Joseph II of Habsburg and Josef Ressel (who lived there).
This in case this interest any of you.
