Biserica Reformată Odorheiu Secuiesc

The Reformed Church of Odorheiu Secuiesc is one of the emblematic places of worship of this town in the heart of the Székely Land, in Harghita County. Odorheiu Secuiesc, regarded as a genuine cultural centre of the Székely, has a majority Hungarian community with deeply rooted traditions, and the Reformed church is a central point of spiritual and communal life. Passing to the Reformation as Calvinism spread among the Székely, the church keeps the austere character of the Reformed rite, with an interior free of excessive ornament and a tower that marks the town's skyline.

Odorheiu Secuiesc is renowned for its many monuments, its distinctive atmosphere and its carefully preserved traditions, one of the towns that most strongly expresses the Székely identity. Nearby lie fortresses, baths and villages with rich heritage. For visitors discovering this land, the Reformed church in the town centre offers a window into the confessional history and the communal spirit of the Székely of this region of Transylvania.
