Reformed Church in Sibiu

The Reformed Church in Sibiu is a church building with a narrow, sober front facade constructed between 1784 and 1786. Its interior impresses with plain design and a notable organ supported by two massive pillars.

The building was constructed following imperial approval from Joseph II and a land donation by Baron Losontzi Bánffy Farkas, reflecting the growth of the Reformed community in the city. Its completion occurred during a period of increased religious tolerance in the Habsburg empire.

The church shapes the streetscape with its restrained exterior and serves the Reformed community for worship. Its simple interior furnishings reflect Reformed theology, which emphasizes direct spiritual experience over ornamental display.

The church is accessible on most days, though it remains an active place of worship for the Reformed community and their daily schedule should be respected. Visitors will find a quiet setting to explore the architecture, but should be considerate during services or private events.

The pulpit work was not completed until 1790 and displays gilded decorations, curtains, and rose garlands that Countess Borbála Bethlen Nalátzi funded. This later addition is an important artistic feature that enriches the otherwise simple church interior.
