This nicely restored bastion is part of the medieval Brasov city defenses.The city wall is guarded by several bastions each maintained by a different guild,but this particular one is the gunpowder reserve of the armory next to the Draper's Tower.Not only gunpowder but also a number of arquebuses and crossbows were stored here in the days of yore and some still remain for the tourists to see (very rarely when it's open). Sometimes modern art exhibitions are housed in some of the towers at odd times.
It was a rather cold day in..June in 2018 when I climbed this hill -a little bit higher is a nice vista of all the city but the clean lines of this particular tower stood out.
This is another shot from my trusty D200 that I still carry to this day, and looking at the colors and clarity you can see why:)
