Churchfortress e.V. Friends of Hundertbücheln - Movile

Purpose of the non-profit-association “Churchfortress e.V. Friends of Hundertbücheln - Movile” is on the one hand to maintain the architectural heritage of the fortified churches in Transilvania, their whole ensembles and the characteristic scenery of the medieval villages. On the other hand and in straight professional reference, the association focusses on the sustainable development of a regional based small-scaled economy using the existing traditional craft and agricultural methods. Most (although not all) international members of the association have their professional background in the subject of landscape architecture and try to implement their ecological and esthetical perception into the individual historic scenery of the village Hundertbücheln/Movile in particular and of other transilvanian villages in general. As landscape architects and planners we see the special value of a coherent and integrative landscape and are able to use the combination of architecture and greenery to improve the daily life of people.
