The Black Church
One of the most impressive historical monuments in Brașov is the Black Church, located just 5.7 km from Orchard Villa. This Gothic-style church was originally built in the 14th century and was named after a fire that charred its walls in the 17th century. It is the largest Gothic construction in Southeast Europe, and due to its size, when it was completed it was awarded the title of the Largest Church between Vienna and Constantinople. For all art lovers, this is a true masterpiece of architecture.
Council Square
Another must-see monument in Brașov is Council Square (Piața Sfatului), which was the heart of the city for centuries. It is surrounded by colorful Baroque buildings and houses the city's most famous landmark, the Council House. Built in the 15th century, this building served as the town hall, and today it houses the Brașov History Museum.
Strada Sforii (Rope Street)
