Saxon heritage city of cobbled streets and watchful eyes
Sibiu is Transylvania's most perfectly preserved medieval city, with merchant houses fronted by 'watching eyes'—windows set in roofs as if the houses themselves were observing the street. The cobbled square (Piața Mare) feels like stepping into a Hans Sachs painting, and the defensive walls surrounding town speak to centuries of siege and survival. Saxon heritage runs deep, creating a tangible sense of Central European culture.
