Pictures
As well as the old town citadel with clock tower and 2 big churches ( the church on the hil and the monastery church), Sighisoara also has an orthodox cahedral, across the river from the old town.
We spent the night on the parking lot directly in front of the old town: conveniant and cheap, but quite loud due to Saturday-night revellers!
