Historic Houses in Bistrița's Old Town

Highlight • Historical Site

Under the protection of the Hungarian Queen Elisabeth, the inhabitants of Bistriţa became the most important merchants in the region in the 15th century. They handled trade between Transylvania and Moldavia. The city was declared a "royal free city", a status that gave it economic, legal and political autonomy. The proud town houses, many of which are still well preserved, bear witness to this heyday.

Bistrița

Highlight • Settlement

Bistrița is one of the seven Saxon fortresses in Transylvania. This city has an interesting history which can still be read through the architectural style of the many buildings and religious complexes.

The evangelical church is the emblem of Bistrița. It is located in the center of the city. It is an architectural monument representative of the transition from Gothic to Renaissance style in Transylvania. The church tower is perched 75 meters high. It is one of the tallest towers in Romania.

You can go to the top of the church by taking an elevator. Admiring the panorama of a city helps you better understand its layout and also helps you get your bearings.
