About the place

The house is on Bastionului Street in the north of the citadel, about 200 m from the Clock Tower. Georgius Krauss, the town notary who wrote a chronicle of Sighișoara and Transylvania, lived here. The restoration kept the vaults, the roof timbers and the frescoes found in the walls, the oldest from the 1600s; one of the rooms is called the 'Fresco Room'.

The restaurant serves traditional and international dishes and has a terrace. Reviews from 2026 praise the clean rooms and the staff, and one mentions the old tiled stoves. It holds 9.4 on Booking from 959 reviews and 4.5 on Google from 855 reviews.

Good to know

  • Car access to the citadel is restricted; ask when booking where to park and how to get your luggage up.
  • For the feel of the old house, ask for the fresco room or the canopy-bed room.
  • The Church on the Hill, via the Covered Stairway, is about a 10-minute walk.
