Cetatea Rupea
The fortress of Rupea nowadays covers an area of approximately 11 ha (~27 acres) together with its walls, towers, and inner courtyards. Because of its dominant position near the European route E60, to the north, and on the right of the city, it is a remarkable presence from a great distance. While it was first attested in 1324, the fortress wasn`t built at that precise moment but must have been realized at least a few decades earlier.

Saxon Church
Built in 1493 in Gothic style it is one of the nicest old churches from Transylvania. The complex was surrounded by a powerful defensive wall, the perimeter of which is today marked by a fence.[1] The only surviving portion is the northern tower, which was fitted with a prominent spire in 1677
