Experience Fortified Churches App is the official application of the Fortified Churches Foundation, available for devices compatible with iOS and Android.
The application is your interactive tool to discover and experience the rich cultural heritage of the fortified churches in Transylvania.
Transylvania is famous for its over 160 fortified churches and their long history dating back to medieval times. At the time Transylvania was a hard-fought border region. The population reacted to enemy attacks by expanding their churches through fortifications. In cases of conflict the fortified churches served the villagers as an area for retreat and protection. For centuries they have been modified and reconstructed. Many of them have been maintained to these days and together they form the unique landscape of fortified churches which is characterized through the density and diversity of this cultural heritage. They are the visible landmarks of many villages and the entire region..
