The Carpenters’ Tower
The Carpenters’ Tower of Hermannstadt / Sibiu (in Romanian: Tourul Dulgherilor) was built in the 14th century by the Saxon carpenters’ guild of Hermannstadt. The tower was part of the third fortification belt of the town and is today the left tower of the still preserved defence and fortification wall. It is located on Fortress Street (Harteneckgasse, named after the mayor Johann Sachs von Harteneck).
