About this place

Apor Bastion is one of the best-known viewpoints in the spa town of Băile Tușnad, located on the slopes of Surduc Hill at an altitude of 761 m. Built in 1883 at the initiative of Count Károly Apor, it was never intended for military purposes, serving instead as a scenic lookout and resting place. The bastion offers breathtaking panoramic views of Băile Tușnad, the Olt Gorge, and the Falcon Stone Nature Reserve. Following its restoration in 2017, a small exhibition presenting the history of the site was opened inside the bastion.
