Aww, there is so much to say about the historical part of Sighisoara that you can hardly fit it in one blog.
The covered staircase to which you have referred is a very important building, having the name of "Schoolchildren's staircase", it was built somewhere in 1642(), its role being to protect children when weather conditions were not favorable (rain, snow, high temperatures or even wind).
Somewhere after finishing climbing those stairs, children could go to school and people from the village could reach the church on the hill (another fabulous historical landmark).
And I have visited all the sights in this fabulous city, so maybe you will come back here with another post from this city and other equally interesting places.
I'm curious about your impression of this city.
Oh, wow, thanks so much for providing this info.
I thought of its purpose while passing through it but wouldn't figure all that out myself, definitely :)
You're right, from the short time I spent there it made me wanna go back, it is on my list.
Now that both our countries are in Schengen, traveling should be even easier ;)
I'm also glad that we entered Schengen by land, I don't know if you know what it meant until now to cross the border from Romania into Hungary (hours in line, often the drivers' nerves were breaking down and some of them were even arguing among themselves).
And to come back to Sighisoara, I recommend you to visit this city again because it is really worth it, plus you can plan to visit some areas near Sighisoara, it really is a spectacular part of Romania.
Oh, entering Hungary by land was somehow always an awful experience. I crossed that border once and also, I crossed by car from Serbia to Hungary. Border police officers, Hungarians, were extremely rude, searching for cigarettes at some strange places until I started complaining in English asking why are they so rude and that I don't smoke at all. Still, up to this day I remember this experience :)
I hope I have the chance to travel more in Transylvania, I loved almost everything I saw.
