Geocache Description:

The Evangelical Church is a construction in the baroque style (1746) that preserves the western tower of a former Gothic church. Especially valuable are its pews painted in the 17th-18th centuries. In the Church yard there is a monument dedicated to the Austro-Hungarian soldiers who died in WW I.
The nearby Village Museum at Cisnadioara exhibits pottery, tissues and wood, as well as Saxon painted furniture that illustrate folk art styles in the south of Transylvania.



 Church service is held Sundays from 11am.

[RO] Biserica Evanghelica din Cisnadioara, situata în centrul satului, a fost construita in stil baroc si a fost finalizata in 1764. Ea a fost ridicata pe locul unei foste biserici în stil gotic (1428), din care s-a pastrat doar turnul din partea vest. Biserica adaposteste cea mai veche orga cu tuburi functionala din Transilvania (1723). Instrumentul a fost restaurat si modernizat, aprovizionarea cu aer facându-se printr-un sistem electric de ventilatie.
În partea de vest a curtii se afla un monument închinat soldatilor cazuti în Primul razboi mondial.
Langa biserica se află Expoziția Muzeală de Etnografie Cisnădioara, organizată în 1971. Aici se pot vedea piese de textile, ceramică și lemn create de către populația săsească din sudul Transilvaniei.

[DE] Die Pfarrkirche (Dorfkirche) im Michelsberg, deren Befestigungsanlagen bis auf den Westturm mit seinem Wehrgeschoss verschwunden sind, ist unterhalb der Bergkirche. Die Kirche wurde 1764 auf den Grundmauern eines gotischen Vorgängerbaus als barocke Saalkirche errichtet. Auf den aus verschiedenen Phasen der Barockzeit stammenden Ausstattungsstücken wie Gestühl und Empore finden sich bäuerlich-florale Malereien.

[HU] A Kisdisznód központjában álló evangélikus templom gótikus tornya 1428-ban, a barokk templomhajó 1764-ban épült. Orgonája 1723-ból való és a legrégibb, ma is működő orgona Romániában.
A tempom udvarán láthatunk egy, az elsö világháborúban elhunyt katonáknak emelt, emlékmüvet.
A templom mellett szász néprajzi kiállítás található.

Attention - the church is under video surveillance!
The gate from the SW is usually open.
