Council House, Brașov

The Council House, Casa Sfatului, stands in the middle of Brașov’s main square. Its history is tied to civic administration and the craft guilds, while its tall clock tower remains a prominent landmark. The historic town hall houses the county history museum. Viewing the exterior helps explain the square’s role as the old town’s administrative and commercial centre.
