"The citadels are very interesting, in times of war they were protected by members of different guilds. For 2 lei you can visit the Carpenter Tower, then walk along a bridge to the Potters Tower. Further along in lovely Citadel Park you’ll find the Weavers Tower. It’s a beautiful area of Sibiu, a must visit"

Even if on night time may be a bit empty"
