The Sighişoara (Romenia) Clock Tower:
Located in the eastern part of the Sighişoara Citadel, the Clock Tower was built to protect the main gate of the citadel, to host the City Council meetings, and for keeping the archives and treasures of Sighişoara.
The Citadel of Sighisoara was founded by german settlers in the 12thcentury. The first documentary evidence dates from 1298. Built by the Saxon colonists living in Transylvania, who had to watch over the frontiers of the Hungarian kingdom in the 12th and13th centuries, the fortress gathered inside its walls: Saxon, Romanian and Hungarian craftsmen. That’s the reason why the citadelwas named in all the three languages: Schäßburg, Sighisoara, and Segesvar.
I visit Sighisoara during my road trip (23 Sep till 29 Sep) this year together with two friends and me girlfriend.
