Itinerary

1. Village de Viscri
The first destination of the day is Viscri, one of Transylvania’s famous Saxon Villages, whose fortified church is included in UNESCO’s list of World Heritage Sites. The Viscri Fortified Church is Lutheran church built in a Romanesque style, and it was fortified in 1500. Its halls were lengthened and linked to the keep, and another level was added to the keep, that was fortified with battlements.
Duration: 60 mins
2. Centrul Istoric Sighisoara
We will then head to the city of Sighisoara, whose historical center is also included in the UNESCO Patrimony. Sighisoara is home to one of the few inhabited medieval citadels in Europe. Due to its remarkable architecture and stunning surrounding landscape, the city earned the name of “The Pearl of Transylvania” ever since the end of the 19th century. In Sighisoara, you will visit the Clock Tower, one of the most remarkable landmarks of military architecture in Transylvania, as well as the uncontested icon of medieval and pre-modern public authority.
Duration: 60 mins
3. Biertan Fortified Church
Next, you will visit a village that was mentioned for the first time in official documents in 1224. Biertan was presented in a BBC reportage as “one of Transylvania’s seven Saxon UNESCO World Heritage Village, frozen in time”. Today, the settlement is known worldwide due to its Fortified Church, restored with funds raised by former inhabitants of the village which are now spread all over the world.
Duration: 60 mins
4. Cetatea Rupea
Before heading back to Brasov, we will stop at Rumidava, a former Dacian settlement. During the Roman occupancy, the name of the settlement was changed to Rupes, and here we will visit the Rupea Citadel, erected on the Cohalmului Hill, that silently guards the city. The Citadel was constructed and extended in the 14th and 17th centuries, and it served as a safe haven for the surrounding villages.
Duration: 60 mins
5. The Council Square
Your tour will come to an end in Brasov, where you will take a tour of the city center and discover the history of the Black Church.
Duration: 60 mins
