The Stag House is a historic burgher residence built in the 17th century, notable for its well-preserved Renaissance-style facade. The building's name derives from the sculpted stag head relief above the entrance, symbolizing the owner's wealth and status. Inside, the house features vaulted cellars and period rooms with original wooden beams and stucco decorations. Visitors can admire the ornate stone doorway and the intricate ironwork of the windows. The house now serves as a hotel and restaurant, offering a glimpse into the life of Sighișoara's prosperous merchants.
