The Lutheran Evangelical Cathedral and Tower is an impressive structure in downtown Sibiu. It provides a stark contrast to the Eastern Orthodox bisercas that dominate Romania. It is reflective of the diverse ethnic groups that occupied Romania over the centuries. We were unable enter the church because of renovations.

Worth a visit, even if just to take in the exterior. Impressive spire. Should be made part of your walking tour of old town.

Anyone who has traveled to Sibiu can tell you that the Tower of the Lutheran Church is probably the town's most important landmark. I've visited Sibiu many times, and when I'm driving through town trying to get to the main square, it's always my guide. The Church was built by Saxon settlers in the Gothic Style, and is a rich...

One of Romanian's most beautiful medieval city, and the evangelical cathedral from Sibiu is worth your visit. You must climb the tower for an awesome city view. Verry cheap
