Well worth the climb to the top for the views. And the late 1400's clock mechanism on the 6th floor was interesting.

The cathedral was built in 1520 on the building of a 12th century Romanesque church. In the foreground stands the statue of George Daniel Tautz, Bishop of Sibiu from 1899. The cathedral is Gothic-style and has five towers, the highest of which is 73 meters high and is seen from almost everywhere in the city The eastern wall of the church is covered with a huge painting (more than 9 meters high), painted by the painter "Rosano" in 1445, showing the crucifixion of Jesus. The largest organ in all of Southeastern Europe, located in the Baroque style dating from 1671, has six thousand pipes and in the summer months of June-September, there are concerts for organ organisms on Wednesdays.

This is the second largest Orthodox Cathedral in Romania.
This is quite an impressive building from outside with its red and yellow striped brick work - very Byzantine in appearance. It was apparently modelled on the Hagia Sophia in Istanbul and is the seat of the Romania Orthodox Archbishop of Sibiu. Although the outside is quite magnificent in its own way - the inside is fabulous - ornately decorated and painted with a great altar. This is the umber one attraction in Sibiu, in my opinion.

Definitely confirm the historical legacy of this city, as a rich, important commercial center on Târnava valley. Located on the road between Sibiu and Sighișoara, in a region of wine production, the city ercted this schrine to mark its importance in the city's cotidian life and to display his economic power to all visitors. Very beautiful and well maintained. Also recommend a guided visit, very interesting for individuals attempting to learn more about the whereabouts of the church and city. Tours can be booked instant at the Gift-shop inside the church enclosure. (Ask for Mr. Lutz Connert)

Biertan is one of the most important Saxon villages with fortified churches in Transylvania, having been on the list of UNESCO World Heritage Sites since 1993. The Biertan fortified church was the see of the Lutheran Evangelical Bishop in Transylvania between 1572 and 1867. Also there you will find a lock door that needs 4 keys to open, but has more than 20 lock devices inside. The entrance cost 2 euros.

The fortress is rather well preserved . We were met at the entrance by a nice lady and a special guide: the house cat that walked with us the entire tour. Ensure you’re climbing the stairs into the tower so you can get a nice view over the area. There are some nice accents like the cart transformed in a flower pot stand, the occasional pumpkins hidden in the niches of the walls. Take a stroll outside the walls as well cause the view is nice from that point too.
