Church on the Hill

The Lutheran Church on the Hill stands on the School Hill above Sighișoara's citadel, at 429 metres. Built as a Gothic hall church between 1429 and 1488, it keeps wall paintings from the 1480s that were uncovered in 1934, a late medieval sacrament house and altars brought from other Saxon churches. It is reached by the covered Scholars' Stairs.
