| Description |

The Legend House" keeps the fragrance of a hidden love-story between Count Dracula and a beautiful courtesan he perhaps secretly liaised with in one of the 5 rooms existent today.
The first room, "The Old Room" is furnished and interiorly decorated with a simplicity
that takes ones thoughts back to the style and elegance of long forgotten times...
...Followed by "The Countess' Room" dedicated to the Count's sweet-heart, a cozy room with the irresistible warmth of an old fashioned bedroom...
...Then we find "The Medieval Room" which characterizes the sober dwelling style, medieval Wallachian nobility ...
...and "The Green Room" which creates a pleasant and familiar atmosphere for the intimacy of quiet confessions.
There's also "The Dowry Room" where spiritual riches are impatient to "escape" from a superb ancient chest. |

Sighisoara is for mostly a medieval rural gothic style Citadel but also has renaissance and baroque architecture additionally constructed the XVIth and XVIIIth Centuries.
From the original defensive system started in the XIVth century, today you still admire 9 towers, 2 bulwarks and a part from the defense wall. The towers of the citadel placed in the vulnerable spots in the wall having both shooting galleries and artillery bulwarks. From all these, The Tower Clock 64 meters height is the most impressive because it is one of Transylvania's biggest monuments and also the symbol of SIGHISOARA. The Clock tower is equipped with two 2.4 meter diameter clock faces and a rotary mechanism revolves every 24 hours showing the specific figure for the day the "Down Town" window.
In the Middle Ages religious architecture was as important as military. From the 9 churches functioning from the XIVth to XVIIIth century there are 3 still practicing today. The Monastery church, The church from the hill and the Lepers church their walls religious, funeral paintings and sculptures of unusual beauty can be admired.
As far as the civil architecture is concerned curious that most of the 164 lived-in houses in the Citadel are at least 300 years old and are considered historical monuments.
Here can be seen the semi cylindrical sand stone arches specific to the XIVth-XVth centuries, surrounds of the windows which are mock Venetian gothic style, whilst inside the ceilings and rooms are completely painted. Of all these buildings, the most important are "Vlad Dracul's House", "The Venetian House" and "The House with stag".
A remarkable original construction, the biggest of its kind in Transylvania is "Covered Staircase" which gives easier access to the High School and "The Church from the Hill", especially on winter days.
In spite of the XIXth century buildings, which partially changed the medieval architecture, Sighisoara's Citadel remains the most beautiful array of medieval architecture in central and Southeast Europe. |
