The Thick Tower, Sibiu State Philharmonic, Thalia Hall.
Sibiu, Romania, Romania
The Thick Tower in Sibiu, Romania, is a robust U-shaped bastion built around 1540 by royal judge Markus Pempfflinger as part of the city's medieval fortifications, featuring thick brick walls over a stone base and a cannon platform. Repurposed in 1788 as the city's first theater—Thalia Hall—it hosted Romanian troupes and luminaries like George Enescu before fires in 1826 and 1949, then underwent full restoration from 1990 to 2004 to become the home of the Sibiu State Philharmonic. Today, it stands as a cultural landmark blending defense history with performance arts in Sibiu's historic core.
