    The schedule is kinda short and the tower itself doesn't give that much information about it's history. Just go up take some photos and go down, there isn't anything special to encourage tourists to come and discover. You can take awesome pictures of the main square and the Black Church.

    Underrated place from my point, liked the view from here more than from 'Turnul Alb' which is nearby. A good place to visit when closed, and sit on the stairs watching the view with a cup of tea/wine.

    Unfortunately you can't go up into the tower, but there is still a really nice view of the city from the area which is accessible.

    It's very easy to get to and worth the 10-minute walk. Even though it is closed and you cannot go inside most of the time, the view from up there is really quite unique.

    An absolutely fantastic place to admire Braşov from above. It's only about a 5 minute walk from ground level and not too strenuous.

  • 5/5 Maryna R. 5 months ago on Google • 34 reviews
    It is not very high, but still offers a beautiful view of the old city.

    Black tower is really white after being renovated following a fire (top left, front State Archives); second picture is of the Black Church as seen from the Black Tower. The Black Knight was away on a medical tournament ;-)

    some of the stairs could use some fixing , they are dangerous especially when it's raining. overall though beautiful location

    Good view on the old town but the tower itself was closed 😂

  • 5/5 A F. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice view on the oldtown. It's worthy to stretch the walk till the White tower as well.

  • 5/5 Sean P. 1 year ago on Google
    Short hike up. With an incredible view of the whole city center. Usually these things take much longer to climb in order to see something that great. The viewing balcony is quite large as well and a bit off the normal path.

  • 5/5 Drinna R. 4 years ago on Google
    Close to the city centre, worth paying a visit. It offers a nice panorama of the city and Tampa hill.

  • 4/5 Razvan V. 4 years ago on Google
    One of the best places to admire the old city. Unfortunately the failure of the local authority keeps the tower close and surrounded by high vegetation

  • 5/5 Alkaiba 2 years ago on Google
    Best panorama view in Brasov, when you don't have enough time to go on Tâmpa 🥰 I go everytime I revisit Brasov.

  • 5/5 leonard f. 1 year ago on Google
    Great views of old town. It’s worth the small hike to get here.

  • 4/5 Ioan P. 4 years ago on Google
    This tower offers visitors a great chance to admire the city, unfortunately the local authority keeps the tower almost always closed and surrounded by high vegetation.

  • 5/5 Sorin B. 2 years ago on Google
    offers a beautiful view over the city

  • 4/5 Ivan R. 4 years ago on Google
    The Black Tower is one of the many medieval buildings in the city. It's not big, but it's the symbol of the city. A beautiful view of the city is revealed.
