Miercurea Ciuc, Administrative center in eastern Transylvania, Romania

The area contains three Dacian fortifications from the 1st century in the Jigodin district, later becoming the medieval capital of Csíkszék administrative region.

The Csík Székely Museum, housed in Mikó Castle, presents collections of regional artifacts and documents that illustrate the Hungarian heritage of the region.

The Sapientia Transylvanian Hungarian University, established in 2001, operates in the former Harghita Hotel building, providing higher education opportunities for local students.
