2. Viscri the village
Viscri is only one of the Saxon villages of Transylvania
which is part of UNESCO World Heritage.

3. • The village is located in the center of Romania,
close to Sighisoara (40km). You have to quit
the main road (DN13/E60) in Bunesti, and
then a paved road will bring you here (8km).

4. • Still now, Viscri is a small village, with no more than
500 inhabitants, from which only about 27 are
Saxons. People say that Viscri hide the most
picturesque fortified church of the Saxons from
Transylvania.

5. The origins of the fortified church date from
1100 when the Székelys built a small church
with a single hall and semicircular apse.
Around 1185 the church was taken over by
Saxon colonists

6. The Landscape
The environment surprises by the wide variety. The
wonderfull meadows are bordered by wilde forests
of oak and beech. The rolling hills crossed by pathes
invite you to long walk. All kind af birds chirp around.
