Sightseeing Tour to Medieval Sibui and the Saxon Village of Sibiel |
|
|
Get a taste of ancient Saxon life in the city and the countryside on this tour of Sibiu and Sibiel
| Overview | |
|
The ancient treasures of Sibiu and the rural appeal of Sibiel are combined to charming effect in this exploration of Saxon culture. The largest and wealthiest of the walled cities built by the Transylvanian Saxons in the 12th century, the medieval allure of Sibiu has been wonderfully preserved. Explore a palace-cum-museum from the 18th century, where medieval weaponry, rare artwork, and ancient Romanian literature are on display. Admire the Gothic splendor of the Evangelical Cathedral—which towers above the town at a height of 74 meters—and learn how the son of Dracula met his bloody fate. Venture to the small hamlet of Sibiel, where you’ll enjoy a home-cooked Saxon lunch amid beautiful countryside.
