Turnul Dulgherilor, Medieval tower in Sibiu, Romania.
The Carpenter's Tower features a rectangular stone base that narrows upward, culminating in an octagonal pyramid roof with defensive elements between arches.
Built between 1337 and 1366, the tower reached 21.65 meters in height and formed part of the third defensive ring protecting Sibiu from Turkish invasions.
The tower received its name from the carpenter's guild responsible for its defense, reflecting the medieval organization of city protection by trade groups.
Located on Cetatii Street between the Gunsmiths and Potters Towers, the structure opens Tuesday through Sunday with an entrance fee of 2 lei.
The tower includes specialized keyhole-shaped openings on its first and second levels specifically designed for harquebus fire during medieval warfare.
