Nagyenyed Castle Church
In the Middle Ages, Nagyenyed belonged to the Gyulafehérvár chapter, which also contributed to the construction of the city's churches.
The Church
Romanesque-style tower, simplified late Gothic exterior with preserved original sanctuary, and simplified late Baroque (three-aisled) interior of the church.
The Story
The original castle wall with the watchtower (nowadays the church tower) dates back to the 13th century, built between 1222 and 1239 by the order of King IV. Béla of Hungary.
The story of the city
Nagyenyed, as a settlement inhabited since ancient times, traces its history back to before the Roman era. During the Roman period, the city was known as Brucla.
“I live, you will also live.”
(John 14:19b)
By the power of God, He blessed and set into tireless motion His earthly instruments, and after a hard work exceeding even five years, the fortress church shines in an unprecedented glory.
