Fortified Church in Ighișu Nou
Ighișu Nou, Sibiu
The fortified evangelical church in Ighișu Nou, a village belonging to the municipality of Mediaș, was built in the fourteenth century. It is surrounded by an enclosure with a gate tower and a round bastion built in 1515.
The walls of the church are almost two meters thick. One of the bells in the western tower was cast in 1496, and in a building next to the church the village priest set up a museum with objects donated by the Saxon families who left the village.
