St. Peter and Paul Church (Biserica Sf. Petru si Pavel). Named after the Apostles Peter and Paul, the church was built between 1844 and 1848 in pure gothic style. The imposing portal at the entrance was built after the Black Death had struck the town during 1738-1742. A statue of Archangel Michael is centered above the main entrance. On the left wing there are the statues of John the Baptist, St. Sebastian and St. Charles Borromei, and on the right there are St. John the Evangelist, St. Rocus and St. John Nepomuc. In the yard behind the church stands one of the most beautiful and valuable statues of St. Mary’s, sculpted in 1744.

Fortress Hill (Dealul Cetatuia)

Whoever climbs the many steps up to the Fortress Hill will be rewarded by the best view of the city and surroundings. The name refers to an Austrian fortress built in the 18th century to ensure surveillance of the citadel. 
The fortress also served occasionally as a prison, and it was here that Stephan Ludwig Roth, the 1848 hero of the Transylvanian Saxons, was accused of high treason, imprisoned and executed at the northern gate on May 11, 1849.
 

The New Synagogue (Sinagoga Noua)

A  Moorish-style synagogue, known as the Memorial Temple of the Deportees (in memory of those who died in World War II), was opened on September 4th 1887 and destroyed 40 years later by the Iron Guard, a nationalistic Fascist organization of the time. It was restored in 1951 with the support of Romania's Jewish Community.

Emil Racovita Speleological Institute & Museum (Institutul de Speologie Emil Racovita)

History Museum of Transylvania (Muzeul National de Istorie al Transilvaniei) was founded in 1859. Through its magnificent collection (more than 400,000 items including many rare or extremely valuable objects), the museum illustrates the history of Transylvania from the Paleolithic times to the present. Strange skulls, mammoth tusks, arrow- and spearheads illustrate the progress from the Neolithic and Bronze Ages to the rise of the Dacian civilization. The sections for Medieval, Modern and Contemporary History and the Numismatic Cabinet contain collections of decorative art, ancient books, old printings, memoirs, history and coins, as well as a unique collection of old artifacts. Moreover, it includes vestiges brought to the city by local explorers, including an original Egyptian Mummy.
