Colonnade passage between the two courtyards of Brukenthal Palace, the entrance having in the central part the most beautiful portal with telamons in the city, most probably made in the workshop of Simon Hoffmayer, the most important Transylvanian sculptor of the time. The portal and the telamons have been under restoration for several years.
On the sides of the passageway one can see two busts and in the middle an ancient sculpture, Hecate Triformis.
