    The graft bastion is also called the Bastion Gate. it was built around 1520. There is a canal around the wall, so the bastion was shaped like a bridge. It can be crossed both under the bridge and above the bridge. Both roads lead to the White Tower.

    It is just a minute and a spet away from the city center. Ideal place to stretch your bones and a little walking with beautiful nature around. :) You can go even up to the hill to see medieval ruins of the White tower above the city. Recommended for couples, families... everyone! :)

  • 4/5 Arlo du P. 4 years ago on Google • 110 reviews
    The view from the top is fantastic. The building itself is very boring. Basically a sealed tower full of graffiti. The walking trails around it are green, pretty and easy to walk.. The stairs up are *very* steeps but much quicker than the hiking trails. You could also just uber there (there is road access), but then the experience would be very underwhelming.

  • 4/5 Alexandru D. 5 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Watch Tower of medieval Brasov. It seems restored. There are a few routes that lead to him. , each with its picturesque. From the top you can see the panorama of old Brasov, the old center with the Council Square, the Black Church. Beautiful. Go for a walk to the Graft Bastion, pizza and beer are better. I recommend. (Original) Turn de straja al Brasovului medieval. Pare restaurat. Sunt cateva trasee care duc la el. ,fiecare avand pitorescul sau. De sus se vede panorama Brasovului vechi , centrul vechi cu Piata Sfatului, Biserica Neagra. Frumos. Merge o plimbare pana la Bastionul Graft, la coborare pizza si berea sunt mai bune. Recomand.

  • 4/5 Tita L. 5 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) A small bastion in which are exposed pictures of urban Romania from the 1920s in terms of clothes and other personal belongings. From the front of the bastion you can climb on a staircase with about 50 steps, maybe more, to the White Tower, where you can see a beautiful panorama of the city. (Original) Un bastion micut in care sunt expuse imagini din Romania urbana a anilor 1920 din punct de vedere haine si alte obiecte personale. Din fata bastionului se poate urca pe o scara cu vreo 50 de trepte, poate mai multe, catre Turnul Alb de unde se vede o panorama frumoasa a orasului.

  • 5/5 Stefan P. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Old Brasov is an open-air museum! The advantage is that the authorities knew how to highlight the tourist objectives. Thus, at each objective you hear in the speakers a short historical description, put in the loop. 2. You can orient and inform with the help of virtual tours. 3. The Google Maps map shows you the desired goal. 4. On the culture site of Brașov you can find an ample description of the desired tourist objective. Just don't want to document yourself! (Original) Brașovul vechi este un muzeu în aer liber! Avantajul e ca autoritățile au știut să pună în valoare obiectivele turistice. Astfel, la fiecare obiectiv auzi în difuzoare o scurtă descriere istorica, pusa in bucla. 2. Te poti orienta si informa cu ajutorul tururilor virtuale. 3. Harta Google Maps iti prezinta obiectivul dorit. 4. Pe site-ul de cultura al Brașovului găsești o descriere amplă a obiectivului turistic dorit. Numai sa nu vrei sa te documentezi!

    Beautiful and calm place to have a walk. There is a connection with the White Tower. The museum isn't worth it.

    Small bastion under white tower

  • 4/5 Ioan P. 4 years ago on Google • 377 reviews
    I didn't get in the bastion, but outside there is a canal, and bastion itself is shaped like a bridge. It can be crossed both under the bridge and above the bridge.

  • 4/5 Radu H. 2 years ago on Google • 346 reviews
    Bastionul Graft is situated downhill right under the White Tower. Take the stairwell straight down and it will take you there. Ther is also Brasov Underground Museum next to it. I liked it's location as it was crossing over the small river on the After Walls street.

  • 1/5 hajta 5 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) The place from outside is very nice, but inside there is a museum of high society. Visit it just from outside, as the inside is just a collection of old-fashioned items. My advice: go to the tower from the bastion, take a lot of pictures BUT DO NOT GO INTO THE BASTION. On the outside the bastion is very beautiful, but inside there is a museum of the "high society" that is rather a collection of objects and, above all, old clothes, rather small and with little or no interest. My advice: go up the tower dsd the bastion, take many pictures and DO NOT ENTER THE BASTION (Original) The place from outside is very nice, but inside there is a museum of high society not related at all with anything. Visit it just from outside, as the inside is just a collection of old-fashioned items. My advice: go up to the tower from the bastion, take a lot kf pictures BUT DON'T GO INTO THE BASTION. Por fuera el bastión es muy bonito, pero dentro hay un museo de la "alta sociedad" que es más bien una colección de objetos y,sobre todo, ropa antiguos, más bien pequeña y con poco o ningún interés. Mi consejo: sube a la torre dsd el bastión, saca muchas fotos y NO ENTRES EN EL BASTIÓN

    (Translated by Google) Passing through the Graft Bastion or the Gate Bastion you can reach the White Tower. The walk is pleasant, especially as you walk on a path through the forest, quiet, birds and trees (Original) Trecînd prin Bastionul Graft sau Bastionul Poartă se poate ajunge la Turnul alb. Plimbarea este placuta ami ales ca se merge pe o poteca prin padure, liniste, pasarele si copaci

    Closed to visitors, at least in the winter. Stop for 5 minutes, take a couple of pictures and go. Nothing more to do. A stinky creek passes under its arch.

  • 3/5 Vesa W. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Nice walking path along the river and fine old walls and buildings. Unfortunately, idiots mess up places with spray paint and despise and ruin valuable items. Maybe it says something about their respect for their country. (Original) Mukava kävelyreitti joen varressa ja hienoja vanhoja muureja ja rakennuksia. Valitettavasti idiootit sotkevat paikat spray-maaleilla ja halveksivat ja pilaavat arvokkaita kohteita. Ehkä se kertoo jotain heidän arvostuksestaan omaa maata kohtaan.

    (Translated by Google) "" The Graft Bastion in Braşov or the Bastion of the Gate, as it was called because of its shape, was built between 1515 and 1521, defended and maintained on the cost of the Sharpe Guild and was meant to connect the citizens of the fortress and the White Tower " (Original) ""Bastionul Graft din Brașov sau Bastionul Poartă, cum s-a mai numit din pricina formei sale, a fost construit între anii 1515 - 1521, apărat și întreținut pe costurile breslei șelarilor, fiind menit să facă legătura între oștenii din cetate și Turnul Alb""

    Inside of the wall. Very unusual to me. Maybe it is very normal for 15-th century.
