The Eyes of Sibiu (German: Augen von Hermannstadt, Romanian: Ochii din Sibiu) are the iconic eyebrow dormers on the roofs of Sibiu's houses. Sibiu lies in Transylvania, a historical region of Romania. The eyes, which are a symbol and a tourist attraction of the city, have given Sibiu the nicknames of The City with Eyes,[1] The City Where Houses Don't Sleep[2] and the portmanteau Seebiu.[3] They vary in shape – most of them are trapezoid-shaped, others having rounded or elongated forms.
In Romanian, they are called Ochii Sibiului, while in German they are known as die Augen von Hermannstadt, Hermannstadt being the German name of Sibiu.
