MEDIAȘ FORTIFIED CHURCH

Accessible from the main square via a small covered passageway, the fortified Evangelical church of Sainte-Marguerite was built in the ^15th century. It is Gothic in style. Of its six original towers, only four remain. Known as the "Tour des Trompettes", its impressive sloping bell tower, almost 70 m high, was used to observe and warn of danger. Inside, you'll be impressed by the church's ^{14th-15th-century} murals, organ and oriental carpets on the walls, as well as the altar (1485), a magnificent example of Saxon medieval art.
