Built in the 13th Century and fortified two centuries later, the evangelical church of Prejmer is the strongest ecclesiastical fortress and the oldest Gothic monument in Transylvania.
Come and discover the history of this Fortified Church, and also the legends behind it. One of the legends say that, during a barbarian invasion, a Tartar was hit in the head by an “iron tooth” of a gate. His head is believed to had been so strong that it broke the “tooth”.
