The central point of the Upper Town is represented by the Great Square, and in the northern part there is the Small Square and the Huet Square. The connection between the Upper Town and the Lower Town is made through the Bridge of Lies and the Stairs Passage.

The Stairs Passage in Sibiu is a stone and brick passage that starts from the wool of the Evangelical Church. Its copper color, but also the medieval architecture transposes you to another world, to a picturesque place. The Stairs Passage has two branches of stairs and arches, which surround the walls of the fortress around the Evangelical Church.

The Miniciunilor Bridge was rebuilt in 1959, after it had originally been made of wood. The Bridge of Lies is the first bridge in Romania and the second in Europe made of cast iron, and at the ends it has decorations with the coat of arms of Sibiu. Several legends are circulating about this bridge.

In the Upper Town you will find a multitude of tourist attractions, which we will briefly detail below

Gros Tower (1540), located between Cet??ii Street no. 5 and bd. Hospitals, is a massive semicircular construction with brick walls, which had a defensive role. Currently, it is the headquarters of the Sibiu State Philharmonic.

The Carpenters' Tower (1337 - 1366) is located on Cet??ii Street, being a flanking tower built by the Saxon carpenters from Sibiu. The tower is part of the third belt of fortifications of Sibiu.

the urn of the Potters (15th century) is also found on Cet??ii Street, with five shooting ranges around it.

The Archebuzierilor Tower (1357-1366) is the southernmost of the towers on Cet??ii Street, its name coming from the keyhole ramparts that it has on the first level, through which you could shoot with the archebuza.

Also in the Upper Town are the Mercenary Bastion (Soldisch), the Haller Bastion and the fortification system of the city.
