Sighişoara is located on the Tarnava River in Mures county,Romania.
It is located in the historic region of Transylvania. German craftsmen
and merchants, The Transylvanian Saxons, were invited here by the King
of Hungary during the 12th century, to settle and defend the frontier.
Central Sighisoara has preserved in an exemplary way the features of a
small medieval fortified city and it has been listed by
UNESCO
as a World Heritage Site. Each year a Medieval Festival takes place in
the old citadel in July. Sighisoara is a popular tourist destination due
to its well preserved walled old town. The landmark of the city is The
Clock Tower, a 64 meter high tower build in 1556. It is presently a
Museum of History.
