The White Tower

Amazing view to all city. Built in the 15th century, the renovated watchtower with its stone staircase now houses a museum. Many steps but the lanscape is wirth to go there

Like its neighbor, the Black Tower, the White Tower is yet another abandoned historical monument. In theory, the building is supposed to host various temporary exhibitions, but although I visit Brașov at least once a year, I’ve never once found it open. I’ll give it two stars only because it hasn’t yet suffered the same “restoration” treatment as the Black Tower, where someone thought a glass roof would be a brilliant idea. Otherwise, it’s the same story as everywhere else: dirt, neglected paths, graffiti-covered walls, and a complete lack of information panels...

Must see of course. Get there at noon and hear all the city church bells ringing. Panoramic views of the town of Brasov. Perfect.

Nice place to take some Ariel photos of the city, bit of a hike up - steep stairs so be careful but well worth it in the evening for some pictures. No cost to use the viewing platform.

Amazing view of Brasov, the full view encompasses the different historic architecture that spans the Communist-era to the medieval German settlers and native Romanian people. The climb to the White Tower is a rather steep flight of staircase so it may be challenging for some. Nonetheless, the view is worth the effort!

A historical site above Braşov with a beautiful view of old town. A perfect site to watch the sunrise as it casts its rays over the red rooftops.

Great place to see a different face of Brașov City from above. And climbing the stairs helps for that moment. We did not visit the tower, just admired from outside.

While walking along the path near the river, we stumbled upon a sign for a white tower or something like that. We decided to check it out, and the view turned out to be incredible. Since we went during the spring, the nature was especially nice. We didn't go inside since it was closed at the time.
