Street merchants and Etnic Art


Numerous merchants in the streets gives Sighisoara its dynamic under its medieval quietness.

One can find paintings. The clock tower is represented with different colors according to the season, or the style.

In the Tinsmith Tower stands the exhibition of the association of artists.

Etnic Art


In the shop "Etnic Art", next to the Tailor’s Tower, one can see the models Romanian students from all parts are creating. Modern colors and shapes reflect the trend.
Local made clothes are also to be found.

The Spoon Man and his colleagues


The Spoon Man works and tells his stories in the same time.


Going though the street close to Piata Cetatii, it is impossible to miss the artist. Less sculptor than story teller according to him...



The Spoon Man


The ladies creates bags, clothes table etc, sometimes also integrating some new material like colorful pearls which give a very nice aspect to their masterpieces.

House on the rock shows in its wall Piata Cetatii the ceramic of Corund and the masterpieces of Les Daniel. Excellent homemade cakes and quiche are to be tasted.
