I found this place by chance, while wandering around the streets of Brasov. It links Cerbului Street with Poarta Schei Street. The street was initially used as an access route by firefighters. Length: 83 meters. Width: 1,32 m. Accordingly to the (short) Wikipedia article, it was referred in documents for the first time in the 17th Century.
The other end of the street:
45° 38.359'N
25° 35.331'E
Type of documentation of superlative status: Sign on the spot
Location of coordinates: One of the ends of the street
