PIAŢA HUET

In the heart of the former ^12th-century citadel, this pretty cobbled square is dominated by the Evangelical Cathedral, in front of which stands the statue of Bishop Teutsch (1899). Opposite is the Brukenthal secondary school. In another corner, the Tour des Escaliers is the only remaining element of the old fortifications. This Romanesque gateway dates back to the ^13th century and is the oldest building in the town. Next door, the CasaCalfelor, an inn for traveling craftsmen, intrigues with its bric-a-brac of tools.
