Map of Saschiz: Evangelical church

The Ghotic style Evangelic church in the market square Saschiz was built on the foundation of an earlier, XIII century basilica.
It was last rebuilt beween 1493-1525. In 1667 the clock tower, originaly designed a bastion, was raised two stories, and loopholes were made on its wall as well as a passage for protection behind the two metres thich walls. Till the XIX century the church and tower were surrounded by fortifiing walls. The wooden loft is the work of the local carpenter- and mural painting workshops, fameous throughout the whole Transilvania. The admired tiled ceiling and the crowns of the painted pulpits were also made here. Next to the church there is a cemetary with hundreds of years old gravestones.
