Photos from Copsa Mare
Only 2 km from the famous village of Biertan, almost as beautiful and well preserved, but less touristy, Copsa Mare is a quiet place in the heart of the Wine Country. The fortified church is probably there for almost 7 centuries.

FOCUS
Copsa Mare / Grosskopisch
A free commune of the old Fundus Regius, Copsa Mare used to have some of the most vast and famous vineyards of the region, "The Wine Country". Two churches are mentioned as being used in this town. In the early 14th century, the holy service was recorded as being held in a three-nave gothic basilica; a 1283 document introduces the hypothesis of an earlier church.
