Sighisoara Citadel - Travel Romania














"The town of Sighisoara is the most enchanting of all the Transylvanian towns.
Its medieval buildings, gilded roofs and towers have been unspoiled by war or modern industry.
The Citadel, built by the Saxons in the 12th Cent., rises above the town and is preserved as a museum."
