What to do in Sighisoara when it rains

Grey skies over Sighisoara are a chance to go deep on its museums and galleries, poke around an indoor market, and find the cosiest café in town.

Museums

Spend a few hours in the city's museums — many are free, and a rainy day is the perfect excuse to take your time.

Art galleries

Duck into the art galleries; they're quiet, warm and rarely busier than on a wet day.
