Medieval Festival in Sighisoara

For Romanians Young Of Heart on a Queste for the Olde Ways, there be no better destination than Ye Medieval Festival in Sighisoara.
The Saxon town background is unrivaled as a setting for fully costumed re-enactors.
They stride the streets like knights of yore.
And worship the body like flower children of yesterday.
Fortunes told by parrot.
The pretending and partying goes until the bodies drop, in the campgrounds or where ever exhaustion took its final revenge.
The Roma (Gypsies) are real, selling their copper wares in the heat of the good times.
Sighisoara is one of the best preserved medieval towns in Europe and the venue for Romania’s most remarkable street festivals: The Festival of Medieval Arts and Crafts. Re-creating a medieval atmosphere, complete with troubadour music and costume parades, street entertainers and handicraft displays, open air night concerts and medieval ceremonies, this event will allow you to immerse yourself in the lore and legends of medieval Transylvania. For a unique experience have lunch in the house where Vlad Tepes (the real Dracula) was born.
