nebunul · January 10th, 2007, 10:58 PM

Large square ...

The Large Square is the historic center of Sibiu, first time mentioned in 1411 as corn market. The public executions and public meetings used to be held here. Here is the best shown the 'city eyes' the windows from the roofs.
For hundred of years the square changes the name from 'Grosser Ring' to 'King Ferdinand'.
The square has a length of 142 m and a wide of 93 m, being one of the largest in Transylvania.
The southern side of the square is declared architectural monument with preserved medieval styles. The most important building is at number 10, the Haller House built in 15 century. This house was the property of the Haller family for 400 years.
At number 8 is the Hecht House (15 century) and corner with Magheru Street is Fileck House (1802) one of the most impressive building in town.
The north side of the square is dominated by the Catholic Church and corner with Avram Iancu Street stands the Council Tower.
On the east side the most important building is Weidner-Reussner House with the original portal dated 1652.
Facing west is found the beautiful Brukenthal Palace (1789) which hosts the Brukenthal National Museum, and next is the Blue House, a baroque building from the 18 century.

One of the "first iron-cast bridges in Romania, built in 1859 over the street that connects the upper-town to the lower-town. It was named The Liars Bridge (or The Bridge of Lies) because of the legend that no one can stand on it and tell a lie without the structure collapsing".
