Romania Travel Guide - Visiting the Sighisoara Clock Tower
Take a tour of Sighisoara Clock Tower in Sighisoara, Romania -- part of the World's Greatest Attractions travel video series by GeoBeats.
Of all the sights in Sighisoara, the most popular and impressive is the clock tower.
It's an impressive structure, standing over 200 feet tall near the town's central plaza.
The clocktower was built into the thirteenth century and has been through several changes since. The roof was redone in Baroque style after it was damaged in a fire, and in the late 19th century vibrant tiles were added.
The tower's clock features a mechanical display of several different miniature wooden people.
A worthy sight on its own, the Sighisoara Clocktower is also home to a history museum.

Gorgeous UNESCO and Medieval Sighisoara, Romania
Gorgeous Sighisoara is one of the most beautiful, best-preserved medieval towns in Europe and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Very few 16th century town are perfectly intact but Sighisoara still has nine towers, cobbled streets, old houses and ornate churches.
It is also the supposed birthplace of Vlad Dracula (also known as Vlad the Impaler), ruler of Walachia from 1456 to 1462 who inspired, none else, the Count...Count Dracula!
The magnificent Clock Tower was built in the second half of the 14th century, expanded in the 16th century, and then a two-plate clock with figurines set at the top of the tower, in the 17th century.
Can you believe we had less than two hours here? Argh...
