In every fortification system, one fortress dominates the others: the master-tower. The Clock Tower of Sighișoara (Romanian: Turnul cu Ceas) is the main entry point to the citadel, opposite guarded by Tailors’ Tower.  At 64 meters, the tower is visible from almost every corner of the city.  Its purpose was to defend the main gate of the citadel and also served as the town hall until 1556. Now it’s considered one of the most expressive clock towers in Transylvania.  Unused card.  Grade: 1
