Sighișoara’s Clock Tower, a key defensive structure built between the 13th and 16th centuries, once served as the town council’s meeting place. Located in the heart of the medieval citadel, the tower is distinguished by its shimmering, scale-like tiles that cover the roof and the painted wooden figurines that emerge from a niche beside the clock. Inside, visitors can explore a small museum and ascend to a 360-degree viewing platform, offering panoramic views of the surrounding area.
