Sighișoara Citadel Tour: Discover Medieval Sighișoara with a Local Guide
Step back in time and immerse yourself in the enchanting history of Sighisoara’s Medieval Citadel with a private walking tour. Spanning 2 to 3 hours, this personalized experience allows you to connect deeply with the history of this unique UNESCO World Heritage Site, asking questions and discovering both the iconic landmarks and the hidden treasures that many visitors miss.
A Citadel Full of Stories
Sighișoara is not just another medieval town—it’s one of the two last standing medieval citadels in Eastern Europe that has been lived in continuously since the Dark Ages. Its cobblestone streets and historical buildings are whispering tales of a bygone era.
The citadel is also famously known as the birthplace of Vlad the Impaler, the historical figure who inspired Bram Stoker’s iconic Count Dracula. Our tour weaves together these fascinating narratives—from medieval history to the legends that have crossed continents.
You can appreciate Sighișoara’s stunning architecture on your own, but to truly understand its rich history and culture, you’ll enormously benefit from having a local guide take you beyond what’s in the guidebooks. Let me, someone who has lived here all my life, reveal the culture and stories only a local can share.
Landmarks that Bring History to Life
During our tour, you will be introduced to all the iconic sights that define Sighisoara. We’ll admire the majestic Clock Tower, a symbol of the city’s power and history, as well as the evocative Church on the Hill, accessible via a four-century-old covered staircase. We will stop by the very house where Vlad Țepeș—better known to some as Vlad the Impaler—was born and take in the rich narrative of medieval life that still pulses through the citadel’s narrow alleyways.
By the end of the tour, you’ll not only have explored Sighisoara’s remarkable landmarks but also received personalized recommendations to make the rest of your stay in Transylvania—or anywhere in Romania—extend beyond the typical tourist experience.
