    The Queen's Chapel is a replica of the Stella Maris Chapel in Balchik, built in 1940 in Bran by Princess Ileana of Romania to house the vessel containing the heart of her mother, Queen Maria of Romania. Balchik had recently been ceded by Romania to Bulgaria. Marie Alexandra Victoria of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha was a Princess of Great Britain and Ireland and the granddaughter of Queen Victoria of Great Britain. Born in 1875, she spent her youth in England. In 1893, she married Ferdinand, Crown Prince of Romania, who became King in 1914.
