Description

Medias – Saint Margaret Evangelical Church

Built in 1488, Saint Margaret evangelical church is a true masterpiece of the Gothic style with impressive defense towers. One of these defense towers – the Trumpet Tower, is in the top ten tilted towers and famous worldwide.
One of the secrets of the tower is that Vlad the Impaler was imprisoned here.

Fortified Church in Mosna

An impressive fortress built in the 15th century which is about to enter in the UNESCO World Heritage list. The beauty of the place is very appreciated by Prince Charles.

The Fortified Church Biertan

Biertan fortified church is one of the largest and most famous fortified churches in Transylvania – therefore protected by UNESCO. Its sacristy door with a locking system that blocks all around the 19 points was awarded at the World Exhibition in Paris in 1910. Here for 300 years Biertan had seen only a single divorce – quite a record for such a passage of time.

Sighisoara Citadel

The city presents itself as one of the most beautiful and best preserved medieval towns in Europe being designated as Unesco World Heritage Site, whose legend reminds us that here born and grew – Vlad Tepes. This perfectly intact 16th century gem with nine towers, cobbled streets, burgher houses and ornate churches rivals the historic streets of Old Prague or Vienna for atmospheric magic.
