Coopers Tower in Bistrița, Medieval defense tower in Bistrița, Romania
The Coopers Tower stands as a stone structure with four levels, featuring thick walls and architectural elements from different construction periods.
Built during the 15th century fortification of Bistrița, the tower remains the last preserved structure from an original network of eighteen defensive towers.
The first and second floors house an art gallery organized by the Nosner Land Cultural Association, displaying regional artworks and historical artifacts.
Located on Dogarilor Street at number 14, the tower currently remains closed to visitors and requires structural maintenance due to its deteriorating condition.
The tower incorporates a gravel roof design, distinguishing it from other medieval structures in the Transylvanian region.
