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.

Queen Maria Alexandra Victoria of Romania was born on October 29, 1875 in Eastwell Park, the granddaughter of Queen Victoria of Great Britain and Tsar Alexander II of Russia. In 1893, Princess Maria married the heir to the Crown of Romania, Prince Ferdinand, and moved with him to the country. The personal charm and the desire to represent her country with pride made the Queen very popular with the people. In her will, the Queen asked for her body to be buried in Curtea de Arges, and her heart to be deposited in the "Stella Maris" chapel in Balchik. However, the Queen's wish was fulfilled only two years later, after the Quadrilateral was ceded to Bulgaria. As a result, the Queen's heart was brought to Bran. In this context, Princess Ileana ordered the construction of the "Queen Mary's Heart" chapel, the construction of which took a year. By the end of the chapel, which was to be similar to the one in Balchik, the Queen's heart was deposited in a rock near Bran Castle. After the establishment of the communist regime, the beautiful chapel in stone was devastated and left in ruins. In 1995, the chapel underwent restoration works, the purpose of which was to bring the heart of Queen Mary back to Bran. Currently, the chapel can be admired, but the interior cannot be visited.
