LIE BRIDGE

The Bridge of Lies(podul Minciunilor) is one of Sibiu's main attractions. Built in 1859, this elegant wrought-iron pedestrian bridge, decorated with neo-Gothic plant and geometric motifs, is the first of its kind in Romania. It replaced an earlier wooden bridge. It was here that passing Austrian soldiers would try to win over the town's young ladies with promises of marriage, which they were never able to keep. Since then, legend has it that if you tell a lie on the bridge, it collapses!
