About

În clădirea principală a Centralei hidroelectrice de mica putere Sadu I, la 19 septembrie 1996, cu ocazia aniversării unui secol de la punerea sa în funcţiune, a fost inaugurat Muzeul Energetic Sadu I, care cuprinde exponate din domeniul producerii, transportului şi distribuţiei energiei electrice din zona Sibiului. Muzeul- un prețios lăcaș de istorie a electro-energeticii românești- este amenajat la etaj, în fostele locuinţe ale personalului care îşi desfăşurase activitatea în centrală.
În cele trei săli sunt expuse obiecte care evocă istoricul Uzinei Electrice de la Sadu I: în prima prima sală, „Cronos”, se găsesc panouri reprezentând diferite faze ale construcţiei, iniţiatorii, finanţatorii şi constructorii (Carl Wolf, Partenie Cosma, Oskar von Miller), alături de utilaje, schițe, documente şi acte, lămpi folosite la iluminatul public în primii ani ai secolului trecut, dar și exponate ce relevă idei de utilizarea curentului electric în diferite momente ale secolului XX (imagini surprinse din etape ale unor proiecte considerate drept îndrăznețe pentru perioada interbelică, cum ar fi tramvaiul electric de la Sibiu, utilizarea energiei electrice în agricultură, centrale telefonice, ceasuri electrice, ș.a.); sala a doua, intitulată „Vulcan”, ne introduce în atmosfera epocii, aici găsindu-se biroul directorului, birouri ale angajaţilor, echipamente de protecţie şi întreţinere, un spațiu destinat instrumentelor utilizate în birourile de proiectare ale acelor timpuri, fotografii de epocă; în fine, în cea de-a treia şi ultima sală, „Hermes”, sunt etalate materiale care evocă amenajarea hidrocentralei Sadu V (planuri, proiecte, macheta în relief a văii, șantierul, uzina).
Sigmund Dachler a fost inginerul care a asigurat o bună perioadă de timp buna funcţionare a respectivului obiectiv industrial.

Built on the location of a gate tower of the second fortification precincts, the Bridge of Lies that joins the two sectors of the Small Square, thus enabling the connection between the Lower Town and the Upper Town, is, undoubtedly, the place in Sibiu with the richest legend.  Featuring a true symbol of the city, the Bridge of Lies was rebuilt in 1859, at the factory of Fredericus Hutte, being the first one in Romania and the second one in Europe to be made of cast iron, with fretwork decorations and having two big circles at the ends decorated with the blazon of Sibiu. Until the construction of this bridge, the access between the two sectors of the square used to be done beneath a conglomerate of buildings, demolished in 1851. The wall supporting the stairs includes a square shaped stone framework, vestige of a medieval building. The Bridge of Lies is considered a romantic place where lovers used to meet, even though at least four legends surround this location... The most known legend has it that the bridge has ears and an unimaginably great power, therefore, while hearing each lie, it starts groaning at every joint and crashes, bringing the liar with his/her feet on the ground. According to another legend, in the Small Square of Sibiu there used to be several fairs, and, after arriving home, some shoppers would realize they were cheated. They would return to the square and would get to grips with the lying merchants and, in the crowd’s explosion of laughter, would throw them off the bridge. Thus, while lodging again in Sibiu the merchants were afraid to cheat the locals a second time. A legend has it that couples of lovers used to walk on the bridge. The young couples would make vows of eternal love and the girls claimed to be virgins. However, after the wedding night, some of the girls would be caught lying. They were dragged to the bridge and thrown off over hand rail. In Sibiu there used to live many cadets who studied at the Military Academy. They would make a date with the local young ladies on the bridge, they were making many promises and afterwards the girls were left waiting uselessly for the men who would forget about them and their love vows.

Built in the 12th century, the fortified church in Cisnădioara is one of Romania’s oldest Romanesque basilicas, preserved almost unchanged, and hosting the oldest church organ in the country. The legend has it that the village lads used to prove their strength before getting married by rolling uphill the big boulder stones from the monastery yard, gathered there for times of trouble. Presently the basilica at the feet of Cindrel Mountains comes alive at film projections, concerts or romantic picnics in the moonlight.
