Description
First light on the Biertan fortified church, and surrounding village and hills, in the Transylvania region of Romania.
Built by the ethnic German Transylvanian Saxon community at a time when the area belonged to the Kingdom of Hungary, and briefly Roman Catholic, the church became Lutheran following the Reformation. Together with the surrounding village, the church forms part of the villages with fortified churches in Transylvania UNESCO World Heritage Site.
