Description
Viscri Village Fortified Church in Transylvania Romania.
The village of Viscri (German: Deutschwei�kirch or simply Wei�kirch) is best known for its highly Fortified Church, originally built around 1100 AD. It is part of the villages with fortified churches in Transylvania, designated in 1993 as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. Mention should be made of the covered wall-walk of the fortification, linked to the four towers and to the Church. At times of war, it would allow people's safe moving along within the Fortress.

Wonderful capture...the graveyard in the foreground adds to the "history" of the subject!
