Well worth the climb to the top for the views. And the late 1400's clock mechanism on the 6th floor was interesting.

7. Saxon Church
Overall Ratings
4.0 based on 58 reviews
The church was built between 1493 and 1525. The presence of the fortified citadel meant that this fortified church was built later than most in the area. Inside the church is an Austrian Baroque style altar from 1735. The organ is one of the ten largest and most important such organs in Transylvania. After many fires the roof was fully restored in 1830.

Not very rich in information, but restored looks pretty good. You have nowhere to buy some souvenirs. Interesting to climb in the attic of the church.
