Itinerary

We begin our journey in the world of Transylvanian fortifications, right in Mediaș, one of the seven Saxon seats from the beginning of the last millennium. Known to many as "the second steepest tower, after the one on the track", the Church of "Saint Margaret" with its Trumpet Tower is the focal point of the medieval fortification.
