An emblem of the city of Sibiu
The Evangelical Cathedral of St. Mary of Sibiu is behind the Piata Mica, Sibiu in the tiny square. You see from far away how high the bell tower is, over 74 meters, and it stands as a symbol of the city. The church was constructed in the year 1520 in the place of a former 12th century Romanesque basilica. What we see now is the 19th century renovation. The interior of the church is Gothic, with arches and a stone funeral that is interesting.

The tower has 7 lower turrets, and is the highest in all of Transylvania.
