The fortress "La zid" is a fortification with an elliptical plan, with a diameter of about 240 m, located on a hill, 3 km west of Orlat, near Halta CFR Sibiel. The archaeological excavations from the mentioned period argue for the dating of this stone fortress in the period between the second half of the 13th century and the 15th century. Part of the Salgo castle, mentioned in documents in 1322, is located here.

The Orlat Monastery rises in the commune of the same name, on the property of the monk Macarie Agachi.
Initially built as a hermitage for monks, the foundation stone of the monastery was consecrated in 1993. Construction work was completed in 2000, the monastic settlement being consecrated in 2001. The monastery is part of the category of those founded after 1989, so it did not undergo considerable transformations. Currently there are 6 monks.

The construction bears the patron saint "Holy Trinity", celebrated every year by celebrating a liturgy to which important church figures and pilgrims from all over the country are invited.

Museum of icons on glass "Zosim Oancea" (Sibiel) created by father Zosim Oancea, after 1970. Father Zosim founded not only the museum but also rural tourism in Romania. The museum has the largest collection of old icons on glass in the world. The collection includes old icons, not only from Sibiel, but also from Moldova, Banat, Zona Nicula, Tara Fagarasului. The icons are over 200 years old and are made on glass created by hand and painted in natural plant colors by the local people.
