Hiking

The ensemble is also known as the "Old Town Hall". The complex is one of the most important architectural monuments of the late Gothic period and the largest Gothic residential ensemble in Romania. It was built mainly between 1475 and 1485. In the middle of the 16th century, the ensemble became the town hall. Today, the Historical Museum is located here. It documents the settlement history of southern Transylvania from the Stone Age to the Middle Ages.

The Historical Museum is located in the Altemberger-Pempfflinger House at No. 2 Fleischergasse, which served as Sibiu's town hall between 1545 and 1948. The ten buildings and the fortified tower represent the most impressive example of civilian Gothic architecture in Romania and Southeast Europe.

The permanent exhibition covers the settlement history of southern Transylvania from the Stone Age to the Middle Ages.

Admission (permanent exhibition): Adults 12 Lei; Children, students, seniors 4 Lei.
