Fotografie + English: Romania-1766 - Council Square (Taken on May 9, 2012, Nikon D300)
- The Council Square is one of the finest central squares in the country, said to be the spot to which the legendary Pied Piper led the children of Hamlin. Located at the heart of old medieval Brasov and lined with beautiful red-roofed merchant houses, the Council Square, known to the Saxon population as the Marktplatz, is a nice place to rest and soak in the beautiful scenery.
- In the center of the square stands the Old Town Hall (1420). Built in the 13th century, the house served as meeting place for the town councillors, known as centurions. On top of the building sits the Trumpeter's Tower, used during the Middle Ages as a watchtower for warning the citadel inhabitants of approaching danger. Today, the old city hall houses the Brasov History Museum.
