Part of the project Sibiu 3D Baroque http://www.360tourist.net/view-tour/3132 Sibiu Local Council - Municipality of Sibiu - Sibiu Culture House Youth Park No.1 0269/22.96.27 http://www.ccmsibiu.ro/ ccmfestsibiu@yahoo.com The Stairs Passage, also known as the “The Wall with Arches” was built from stone and brick, as a connection between the lower section and the upper section of the city, by means of two ramifications of stairs and arcades which encompassed the citadel’s walls from around the Evangelical Church. The Upper Town was protected by guard wall, with two platforms, with an roughly height of 10 m, sustained by massive brackets boosted by flying buttresses on the buildings of the Lower Town, many of them having 6 centuries of age. The two walls meet in the superior side of the passage. The four houses ranged along this passage, at no. 1-4, were raised during the 15th and 16th century, modified in the 18th century and rehabilitated in 1860.
