Turnul Cositorarilor
Biserica din Deal
Lutheran church in late Gothic style, contains many frescoes and a crypt. Close to the cemetery on the side of the hill, which contains many German tombstones.
Scara Școlarilor
an old stone staircase with a wooden roof along the whole span. This leads up to the Church on the Hill, the cemetery and the Joseph Haltrich High School (a.k.a. "School from the Hill"). Has 175 steps.
Turnul Frânghierilor
Interesting show where they explain the real story of Vlad Tepes in rooms decorated to the story. The story is told only in English, Romanian and Spanish. Mostly a speak show, so it's not worth if you are not fluent on one of those languages.
Casa Vlad Dracul
Alleged to be where Vlad Țepeș "The Impaler" (a.k.a. "Dracula") was born. Now is a restaurant.
