Monastery Church in Sighișoara, Gothic church from former Dominican monastery in Sighișoara, Romania.
The Monastery Church features Late Gothic architectural elements with a bell-shaped structure located near the Clock Tower of Sighișoara.
Built in 1289 as part of a Dominican monastery network established by Paulus Hungarus throughout the Kingdom of Hungary to counter heretical movements.
The interior contains 35 Oriental carpets donated by local guilds, along with a bronze baptismal font from 1440 displaying floral motifs and Latin inscriptions.
The church welcomes visitors daily from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM with guided tours available in Romanian, Hungarian, English, German, Italian, and Spanish.
The building represents the sole remaining structure of the original Dominican monastery complex, with only one corridor preserved on the northern side.
