Fortress Church, Târgu Mureș, Gothic church building in Târgu Mureș, Romania.

The Fortress Church features a 50-meter tower with four levels and a pointed roof decorated with smaller towers at each corner.

Construction of the church extended from the mid-14th century to mid-15th century, beginning with a chapel and monastery built between 1350 and 1370.

The church interior underwent modifications in 1790 by Transylvanian architect Anton Türk, who introduced new architectural elements and stucco decorations.

Located at Piata Bernady Gyorgy 3 within the citadel walls of Târgu Mureș, the church remains an active place of worship and architectural interest.

A medieval Franciscan friar's seal discovered in 2010 documents the historical connection between the church and early monastic activities in Transylvania.
