Scholar's Stairs - Sighișoara
The Scholars’ Staircase is a truly original construction of the citadel, being the largest of its kind in Transylvania. Originally it was built of wood and had 300 steps, and its role was to facilitate the access to the High School and the Church on the Hill. It was built between 1660 - 1662 and covered by the locals to protect children going to school. In 1842 it was altered and left with 175 steps. The construction as we can see it today, has a stone foundation with wooden walls and a shingle roof, like a tunnel leading to the top of the hill, the sun rays penetrating through its wooden slats.
