Burgplatz, the city's old commercial and civic center, is square in shape and located at the intersection of two main traffic routes. The relationship between the square's dimensions and the scale of the building facades lends the square a great deal of harmony and intimacy. The five streets that converge here offer interesting perspectives in all directions.

This small park at the Shoemaker's Tower is named after the poet Sándor Petőfi. Petőfi was an important Hungarian poet and writer of the 19th century. He was born on January 1, 1823, and is considered one of the most important representatives of Hungarian literature and the Vormärz period. Petőfi is particularly known for his lyrical poems and political works, which played an important role during the Hungarian Revolution of 1848/1849.

The hexagonal Shoemaker's Tower (Turnul Cizmarilor) at the northeast corner of the Castle Hill was first mentioned in 1521. It was destroyed by the explosion of the gunpowder stored there during the city fire of 1676 and rebuilt in 1680. Its Baroque stylistic elements also date from this period. The bastion for the artillery, which the tower housed, was demolished in 1846. The wooden external staircase was added in 2001.

The Butcher's Tower (Turnul Măcelarilor) was built in the second half of the 15th century. It is a hexagonal structure on an octagonal ground plan, which, together with the bastion in front of it, added later, provided a wide field of fire. The tower has three floors with five loopholes.

With approximately 2,000 graves, the Bergfriedhof is the main cemetery of the Protestant community, which owns two other, smaller cemeteries in Obere Baiergasse and at Siechhof. The Bergkirche and Bergfriedhof complex includes the mortuary hall in the former Goldsmiths' Tower (which also served as a gymnasium for the Mining School) and the Seiler's Tower. At the end of the 19th century, the Protestant Women's Association had an apartment built here for the cemetery caretaker. He still lives there with his family today. The people of Sighisoara have probably been burying their dead on the western slope of the mountain since the 18th century.

A wooden, covered staircase, the Student Staircase, with over 100 steps, leads from the old town streets up to the Josef Haltrich Lyceum, a secondary school for the German minority on the Schulberg. The covered staircase was built in 1654 to provide students with a relatively dry route to class even in inclement weather.

The colorful facades of the old houses and the bumpy cobbled streets create the special atmosphere of the old town streets of Sighișoara.

The Tinsmith's Tower (Turnul Cositorarilor) suffered considerable damage during the Hungarian siege from 1704 to 1706. Traces of the bombardment can still be seen in its 25-meter-high walls. Architecturally interesting, the tower begins on a square base, transitions into a pentagonal structure, and expands to an octagonal storey. The roof forms a hexagon. A now-lost inscription indicates that repairs were carried out in 1583, and the pentagonal bastion was built in front of the tower.
