The tower clock

The clock tower represents the most visited and the most important tower in the Sighisoara citadel. This clock tower is also famous, because of its history and its huge clock, which works even today. Here, the visitors have the possibility to admire the guns with which the soldiers defended the citadel walls, the city map in miniature, old coins, dolls that sound the exact time day by day. The sight offered to the tourists from the clock tower, is an extraordinary one, they being able to admire all the city view.
It’s the main interest point of the citadel and it is the symbol of the town, being built for the defense of the main entrance gate in the citadel.
